[quote=Anonymous]Of course you can. I did try this but DH grew up in a household that is big on processed foods and he gets a lot of those things. And honestly it is so much easier to grab when you are heading out the door. I will say I do make an effort to offer whole foods as much as possible. DD eats them often and likes them. We also make it clear that what is on her plate is her meal and that is what she can have. We do try to offer things we know she will eat but will not bring her a new meal on demand. It's worked for us - but we're also aware we have lucked out that she eats a variety of foods. IME, giving her packaged snacks and chicken nuggets from frozen doesn't mean she won't eat anything else. So based on that I would say don't make yourself miserable trying to avoid those things if you need to give yourself a break.[/quote]
