Honda in England Bans Junk Food in the Office
Staff at Swindon’s Honda factory say they have been banned from eating cakes and fruit in their break rooms.They also claim they can only eat certain types of chocolate bars that do not contain a biscuit base.
Questionnaires are now being issued by the Unite union to consider what action staff should take.
A Honda spokesman said: “Our overall objective is to always deliver the highest quality product and we cannot compromise on achieving this. Therefore our company standards are an essential aspect of our business.”
Jim D’Avila of Unite told BBC News: “They’ve barred things like fruit or any product with a biscuit in it so it’s got to the ludicrous state where a Mars bar is ok but a Twix bar, because it has a biscuit base, isn’t allowed.
“Frankly they’ve lost the plot. The vast majority of people just can’t believe that the company are being so picky in what they’re doing.”
I don’t get how chocolate without a biscuit base or fruit hinders achieving “the highest quality product” at Honda, but I support this ban. I wish all offices could ban vending machines and junk food in the office. That’s why America is so damn fat! You’re trying to diet, but then there’s junk food everywhere you look.
When I was working in a 1-story office/playground with 700 employees, there wasn’t a day outta the year when it wasn’t someone’s birthday and everyone celebrated by bringing in various junk food. Then you can’t walk past the food tables without everyone around encouraging you to “try some cake” because it’s “so good!” That’s not even including the weekly Friday parties. Get the junk food out of every office and school worldwide, baby! Ban that shit, bitch.
