Mom Convinced Me the Little Broccolis Looked Like Trees. Somehow, They Then Tasted Better.. =/


I found something pretty cool the other day and it just occured to me to follow it up.

After watching movies like Supersize Me, and hearing about the gross obesity of the current generation, it seems to me like more should be done so children have better eating habits. Because really, kids dont really put much thought into what they eat. They'll pretty much eat anything that has a hint of promise of tasting good, which depends on whats given to them. So why aren't parents giving their kids greener healthier things..?

And it occured to me that the immense popularity and interest of food deliveries is somewhat a symptom to this situation. People are busy. People dont have time to go out and sometimes its just more convenient to have the food come over. But why must this convenience necessarily be an unhealthy one?

Anyway, my moral aptitude led me to this site that turns out to have some pretty good ideas on how to get children develop healthy eating habits by helping moms cook meals and prepare snacks from fruits and vegetables that kids will actually love. Its got all kinds of tips and tricks, trade secrets of successful moms who are able to feed their kids fruits and veggies without the constant frustration of making threats and childish deals and dealing with sulking and untouched plates.

Sounded pretty cool to me. ^_^
