Yeah, I didn't eat sugar-cereals as a kid, except for very rare occasions of Frosted Flakes, ie on a camping trip, and as a result I find them (cereals) outstandingly weird and appalling.
I'm all about granola and oatmeal, with whatever fruit available. I wholeheartedly agree with the notion of breakfast being the most important meal of the day.
television scares me. not for what it shows me, but for what it shows me that i _immediately forget_.
i'm not much of a fruit guy, i like oranges and occassionally apples. i do, however, believe i would most likely be healthier, etc, if i ate more fruit. unless the pestocides killed me more. anyways.
last night i was taking a break and had the teevee on and there was an ad for some new baby/toddler food stuff. i don't remember what brand. anyways.
it was some type of peaches, or something. and the idea was it was healthier peaches than the other peaches, less sugar or something packaged in it, etc. and they had several types of foods, for toddlers, that were healthier than the competitors.
and i thought "oh, that's nice. if i ever start a family i'd sure like to feed my children healthy things so they are healthy."
today, right now, it dawned on me:
why wouldn't you go and buy a PEACH and let the kid eat a PEACH rather than spend MORE than a single PEACH costs on getting a PIECE of a peach cut up and mixed with white-bleach sugar and preservatives???
oftentimes i don't buy oranges, even though i like them, because i am _lazy_. however, when you have kids, don't you go to the store, like, every 5 minutes, to buy diapers and more food and shoes?
and when you have kids, don't you, like, have to spend 45 minutes preparing the food and feeding them (mmmmmrrrrrrrrwwwww the airplane is going into the hangar please for the love of god open your mouth) every hour?
so, i mean, if you have kids, 1) you can't be lazy and 2) you are at the store a lot and 3) you are broke from buying tennis shoes every 4 hours and so would like to buy a peach for 65cents rather than less than a peach for $3.45??
that being said, i understand why i would want to buy prepackaged baby food because the only time i ever used a blender i broke it.
but peaches? you use a potato peeler and a knife, right?
edit-
sorry, this is the blogs thread, not the foam at the mouth about fruit thread.
