[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]apples sauce, toast and oatmeal is a bad breakfast? (assuming whole wheat, no sugar apple sauce, and not instant oatmeal etc)[/quote]

I am the PP who listed those items. I didn't say it was a bad meal, and mentioned that my mom's and my food concepts are not all that different. But even small differences can feel like an issue.

But also, I do think that meal is too heavy on carby and slightly sweet tastes and lacking in protein, fats, and fresh fruit/veggies. Its the *perfect* kids meal, all bland carbs. So while I think its just an OK meal, my mom is like jeez, its whole wheat bread for cryin' out loud![/quote]

Besides the toast its actually the best breakfast you can feed a kid. Maybe, OP, you need to learn more about healthy eating habits. Apple, while sweet, is one of the lowest fruits on the glycemic index (insulin response to glucose). Oatmeal is full of protein and fiber. It will keep him full. This in fact is what someone that is diabetic should eat for breakfast (or English muffin and cottage cheese or eggs). [/quote]
