Pasta for dinner

[Anonymous]

There are poor peasants and well-off people.

There is a dietary distinction between them.

Haha, I have seen plenty of fat unhealthy well off people. And i’ve also seen plenty of fat unhealthy “poor peasants”.

Fat unhealthy well off people may come from the poor peasant stock. Eat a carb heavy food for calories. For eg - pasta with butter! Ha ha

The good thing about Panera is you can get 1/2 sandwich and 1/2 soup or salad or pasta. A variety but not huge portions.

it’s ironic that people saying they would hate just pasta for lunch are raving about of all things…Panera. What a twist.

Right??!! Give me a good pasta dish (which OP served the adults) over a crappy panera sandwich and bag of chips any day!

The fat well-off people are eating food that tastes better than pasta with butter. I know I'd rather get fat on seafood risotto, than on pasta with butter.

But the issue here is what she served the kids. If she'd offered the guest's kids the sauce, that would have been a huge improvement.

Why? I’m sure the kids are just eating quickly because they have to in order to go play. Most kids leave half of it on the plate no matter how much adults think it’s 5 star food. They have more fun things to get to. Unbelievable how clueless adults can be.

What! No, I’m sure little Ashton would have slowly savored his meal of seafood risotto had that been on offer rather than run off to have a Nerf battle or build Lego…

Calm Down and Eat Pasta

We have always had pasta for lunch or dinner.

I was with my kids (girl age 6 and boy 4) and a friend and her kids at a park. I invited them back to our house for lunch.

I made pasta-penne with butter for the kids and vodka sauce for myself and my friend.

She looked at it and said “is this lunch? A bowl of pasta?”

I said yes this is what we usually have. She looked at me oddly and didn’t say anything else and ate.

But what a weird response.

She is probably used to something different / more variety, but she is extremely rude for saying it. I would think the same thought because I am used to having a carb, protein, and green for lunch and dinner (my parents always did that growing up and I do the same for my kids), but I have enough common sense to know not to complain when a friend has the courtesy to invite me over impromptu for lunch.

My kids have never been like that. They would rather have been offered some sauce even if it took an extra minute to pour it on, and then they would have eaten the whole bowl.

Your kids don’t like to play? Thanks for sharing.

Same, manners are a big deal and that education begins with parents.
