C a M R P

Support Campaign for Real Plates,
The use of which good food dictates

A national shortage of plain china
Is set to plague the rest’rant diner

It just adds nothing to good food
To dish it up on planks of wood

My chicken doesn’t need  a casket,
A cheap and nasty plastic basket

But what I find is really vile –
To eat food off an old roof tile

And even Wildwood, I’ve heard say,
Will use a chipped enamel tray

So join the C,A,M,R,P,
Insist on real crockery.
