Poison and Brocolli






vs.



Yesterday, after Jared's basketball practice, he and I went to Wal-Mart (the same Wal Mart mentioned here). On the way in, Jared asked, "Dad, can we get a Dunkin' Donut?" I jokingly told him, "What??!! Are you crazy? That stuff is poision!" His response:


"So what, dad. I like poison way better than brocolli and stuff."

Ben, that one hit home for me! I'm trying to teach Will more about healthy foods since I started Sunrider, because he's a junk food junkie! And he made a similar comment...he said, "Mom, I think I've decided that I just don't like anything that is healthy for me. It makes me wanna puke!" So I can relate!

I think a doughnut as "poison" versus a little packet of wierd herbs and vitamins dumped in your drink might be a little confusing for a 6 year old!! :)

I can picture him saying that with that face he pulls, where he flares his nostrils. I, too, would rather eat poison than broccoli! Just ask Marissa...
