Junk Food for Thought
quote:
Kids say anything made by McDonald's tastes better. In a study that powerfully demonstrates how marketing can trick the taste buds of young children, even carrots, milk and apple juice tasted better to the kids when they were wrapped in the familiar packaging of the Golden Arches.
If we go out we have such a great place a few miles away but so worth the drive. Around home the kids usually pick Chinese. We really haven't been folks for Mickey D's or Burger King. Quickie stuff picked up on the fly is usually a sub from a Hoagie Shop that is no bigger than a large shed that has been in this town since before I was born.

Re: Junk Food for Thought
Our 3 older ones refuse McD saying it's disgusting (the one time we took them it was filthy and food was foul...as it is most times anyway) - the youngest (nearly 6) is v.keen to go but unless someone else takes him it won't be with us. Our love indian and chinese food - we have a great local chinese but only eat takeout maybe once every 6-8wks - too expensive here for 6 people to have take out! It's mostly just cooking in our house.
