Little Martha Payne, who writes an adorable and charitable blog called NeverSeconds about the food served at her school, was sternly ordered to call off the blog by Scottish council, a ban that infuriated both her father and her 2 million fans. She wrote: “This morning in maths I got taken out of class by my head teacher and taken to her office. I was told that I could not take any more photos of my school dinners because of a headline in a newspaper today.” Immediately following the outrage, however, the ban was overturned and apologized for, so Martha can go back to maths and blog on with her bad sandwich self.
