Well here we are in the middle of August. Can you believe how quickly the summer is going by? Seems like we’re forever on the go, last weekend our family headed up to Massachusetts to spend some time with Aunt Bunky and the Massachusetts cousins. It was a hot afternoon, and the kids worked up quite and appetite running back and forth through the sprinkler. Grilled chicken, corn on the cob and potato salad. Aunt Bunky and my husband pulled a scrumptious dinner together in no time. Of course, my husband was more than happy to take over on the grill. The kids ate very well, and could not get enough corn on the cob.
So, the other day while in the line at the market I got into a brief conversation with a grandmother about the eating habits of the kids these days. She said that when she was a kid, eating amount of processed sugary and salty foods that kids eat today was unheard of. She’s proud of the job her son and daughter-in-law has done at bringing “better” foods into their home for her grandchildren. I mentioned how well the cousins and my toddler ate at Aunt Bunky‘s, and she attributes their good appetites to the fact that they have little contact with today’s plethora of unwholesome snack foods. So, with this in mind, I’d be interested to know if you think you or your kids, or the kids of someone you know are consuming too much processed salty and surgery foods, aka PF's? If so, what are these foods specifically?
