Guest guest Posted March 13, 2007 Report Share Posted March 13, 2007 I know this mother here, that is so picky about everything she eats, and imparts her distaste for so many healthy things onto her kids. Always saying how bad things taste, and on and on. I just cringe, because I know she is raising a 2nd generation of very unhealthy eaters........... I don't understand how folks can dislike any veggie. They are all soooooo good. Judy - starrypryncess Tuesday, March 13, 2007 7:53 AM [sPAM] Quick Veggie Rant OMG... I was in the store last night and a little boy (about 3yo)was asking his dad what brussel sprouts were. Instead of encouraging his young son to try new things he said, " Brussels sprouts are disgusting vegtables that no one eats. Don't worry I won't make you eat them, you wouldn't like them anyway. " WHAT??????????? I don't like brussels sprouts myself but if my children ever question me about them I would encourage them to try them and form their own opinion. What kind of lesson is this man teaching his child about eat nutritious veggies? End rant. Sorry about that folks, Whitney Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 13, 2007 Report Share Posted March 13, 2007 Yesterday, there was this either French or French Canadian chef on one of the shows up here. I have seen him before on the French channel and have always thought that it would be nice to see him in English. His stuff just looks toooooooooo good. Come to find out that he does have a show in English but we just don't get it. Anyways, I found him to be a very likable man and the host of the show was asking about him cooking for his kids and he said a wise thing. He told her that it was very important with children to not impart your own feeling about certain food to them. They will figure it out themselves. He said that one day they will love tomatoes, and the next they won't, and then they will like them again. They should be able to find out on their own. I liked that. Stef Argue not with dragons, for thou art crunchy and go well with brie.
