peanut butter but of course it is now banned from daycare <groan>.

We've had good success with soynut butter ... but it is SO expensive!

 

Anyway, I'm here to exchange information with other parents about

getting our kids to eat healthy stuff, and dealing with the inevitable

peer pressure (Mom, how come I've never been to McDonald's?? Answer,

there's nothing there we can eat, sweetie ...). I'll be looking >>

Hi ,

I have a 12 yrs old who has never been to mcdonalds or the others. I tell my

girls the truth that is junk and I love you too much to feed you junk .Lets

good home and have salad or beans. They say Ha! Oldest can tell that she does

not feel that good when she goes out with gram and has a veggie burger but

has white bread with frieds.One nights she came down and scooped out a big

bowl of steamed veggie she said, " oh I do not how someone would not love

these. "

DH told someone at his work that his girls have not been to these places,

they use starred and him in disbelief. He said they were a little shocked and

said , " You mean they have never had a happy meal?Thats not right, how sad. "

LOL He loved to tell me that story, we laughed and laughed. How sad the girls

have never had 10 day long colds or the flu every year or over weight or ear

infections or just sick all the time.

You might not be a big mouth like me but you might say to son " They do not

have anything that we WANT to eat. " This turns it all the way around and puts

it on them not you.

I do not buy peanut butter, we get almond or cashew.
