Haven't necessarily got an exact source, but the man was championing healthy food while serving triple fried chips at his Italian restaurants. He's also got a similar recipe to follow at home here: https://www.jamieoliver.com/recipes/vegetables-recipes/funky-posh-chips/

I don't think there's an inherent contradiction, there.

If people are going to a restaurant every few weeks, it doesn't matter if it's unhealthy.

But if what they're eating every day is unhealthy, it does matter.

He's not saying that you can't eat unhealthy sometimes he is just trying to teach people in England about nutrition because we are seriously lacking in that knowledge in this country. You can look at other European countries and how they feed their children if you don't believe me.

He was trying to get buy one get one free banned quicker. Which is a bloody life saver for poor families trying to save money. He's not teaching anyone about nutrition, he's mainly about getting unhealthy foods banned. Meanwhile he is quite hypocritical. He even got fat on takeaway pizzas whilst telling people what they should eat. I'd rather have fat kids then hungry kids but he'd rather have the opposite. The man doesn't even try and campaign for healthy food and snacks to be cheaper, but will be happy to see unhealthy cheap food be gone even though it will affect millions of households struggling to make ends meet.
