Um, yeah. I had alllll these grand illusions about how I would feed my precious child, and only the freshest, organic fruits, vegetables and meats and grains would enter her little body. That was before I realized that they can just NOT EAT.

Now, if it contains calories, and she will consent to eat it, in it goes! Wheeee!

Seriously.

Processed cheez stix? You'll eat it? Have another!!

Maidy said...

Belinda - LOL!

I tried the same thing and the little munchkin went right for the pizza and cheese doodles. Oh well.

CP - LOL!!!

Cheetoes! The girl is addicted to Cheetoes. Fine by me.

Man these comments so rock!

See, I was feeling BAD about my kids' diets -- Tyson chicken nuggets? Kraft mac and cheese? Hot dogs? Elio's pizza? Dole fruit cups?

These are the toddler food groups.

Send me an email so I can send you my address for the 3t stuff.

And don’t forget the calcium found in a sixteen ounce serving of ice-cold chocolate milk!!

Maidy said...

Not her.

Go figure! This kid will scarf a Yorkie bar without blinking, eat a half pound Reese's Peanut Butter cup, but hates chocolate milk. She only likes white milk.

It's probably a phase. She'll realize the happiness choc-it milk can bring soon enough! ;)

sadly, I've never gotten to savour the joy of a cheesesteak, one day, I shall have to find a place that serves it. Sounds like it is very popular in the states.

Rowan - Cheesesteaks do rock, I must say. You can't get one in Canada? Ouch. I'll have to figure a way to esport one to ya. My luck, some smack in customs will eat it.

You'll just have to trip on over the border to the US. :)
