[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My child’s preschool class held several birthday parties at the playground last year. At every birthday party, cupcakes were served. 90% of the children only ate the frosting at every gathering. 100% of the parents laughed about it. No one thinks it is rude if your child doesn’t eat cake at the party. And yes, it’s all unhealthy. Fun treat if your kid likes it, but don’t force them to eat cake if they don’t want it!

I’m pretty obsessive about food waste, but with little kids I’ve loosened up a lot. I save uneaten food when possible (not cupcakes with frosting licked haha) but I don’t want to create food issues in my kids by forcing them to eat food they don’t want.[/quote]

Fellow food waste obsessive and I just eat what my kid doesn’t unless it’s really gross/licked.  But agreed I’ve had to relax a bit with little kids.  There will be waste unless you force kids to eat which is a terrible idea for so many reasons.

As a child I liked the frosting best but luckily my older sister was a cake-only no frosting kid so we just split every piece of cake we had.  😆 [/quote]
