The reason is a government decree that requires the use of better raw materials, but they are of course more expensive.

Public procurement launched after September 1, 2021 should take into account Government Decree 676/2020, which was issued last December. The legislation radically changes and renews the meals provided to kindergartens, schools and social institutions.

a nabe One consequence of the change is that as of January 1, 2022, at least 60 percent of the food used in public restaurants must come from local sources (or through the so-called short supply chain), but that percentage will be raised to 80 in cent from January 1, 2023.

According to their calculations, preschool lunches, which are now HUF 322, will rise to HUF 434 next year, and that of schoolchildren from HUF 437 to HUF 589. According to the recommendation, the 522 fort lunch currently valid in grammar schools will be 705 fort next year.
