[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You miss the point. Of course you can make cookies for Thanksgiving. What's bad is making a special dessert just for kids when kids should be able to, and should learn to, eat almost anything that the adults eat at Thanksgiving.[/quote]

You miss the point.  Im not making them a separate dessert.  I am making a dessert that everyone including the kids will enjoy, because it is their holiday too.  [/quote]

Then you're not catering to kids by making a separate dessert for them. That's the point. [b]And what's the harm in catering to kids? Raising picky eaters[/b].[/quote]

OMG you are so boring. You know what I ate when I was a kid? Apple juice and american cheese. My Mom used to bring it along to restaurants. You know what I eat now? Pretty much everything. Your theory is bunk. And your rabid insistence to not coddle children must make your own kids pretty miserable. Let the kids enjoy Thanksgiving for Gods sake. Do YOU like very food on the planet? [/quote]

Never said that a child who is a picky eater will grow up to be a picky eater as an aduly. However, lots of picky eaters and their misguided parents make life hell for others with their special dietary requirements when they eat at others' houses and at restaurants. Don't create a picky eater by catering to kids. [/quote]

Yeah you did. See bolded above. And really? They "make life HELL for others"?? Don't you think you might be being just a TOUCH dramatic? I have a friend - an ADULT!! - who is a vegetarian. When she comes over to our house we have yummy things we know she'll like. It's called being a good friend and family member. Do you even HAVE kids or are you just one of those judge everyone around you kind of gals?[/quote]

Oh, wow, if someone is a vegetarian, I just don't want them to tell me. There will be plenty of foods on my table that have no meat or animal products in them, and the vegetarians will not starve. I think anyone who has a dietary restriction should plan around it: eat ahead of the party, eat what's at the party that suits one's diet, or eat after the party. But please don't mention the restriction to me UNLESS it is a real matter of life and death, like REAL allergy, not something made up like my favorite, the "allergic to sugar" thing. Picky Eaters![/quote]
