The manager of Freshfield Nursery, Mrs Quinton, heard one four-year-old child refer to rice at lunchtime as 'chinky food'. Although she was already developing a strategy for equality in the nursery, this incident made her rethink her work on food. She decided to visit two local shops that sell foods different from each other - one owned by Mrs Elliott and the other by Mr Shah - hoping that the experience would enable the children, from various ethnic backgrounds, to understand each other's lives better.
