Michael waited for Mummy to give him his packed lunch. She had already made sandwiches but wanted to keep the filling a surprise.

He travelled to school wondering what his sandwich contained. By lunchtime, he was very hungry and excited about what it was. Michael opened his lunchbox and peeked inside. He was devastated to discover his sandwich was tuna and sweetcorn.

Michael had a big problem; he hated tuna and sweetcorn. He asked his friends if anyone would swap with him. Charlie said, “Mine are Marmite, but you wouldn’t want one.” Michael smiled. “No,” he said, “I like Marmite.”
