[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]WAIT - are you planning on depriving your child of BACON???????[/quote]

Seriously. I almost hit the "Report" button, so Jeff could track her down and call CPS.[/quote]

What's wrong with the occasional piece of bacon? Are you Jewish?[/quote]

Nope, not Jewish.  I really like bacon, I just don't want my child eating nitrates if I can help it.  She buys crappy food, like frozen hamburgers for her other grandson.  Oh, and cool aide, chicken nuggets, and every processed food you could imagine.  Sorry, maybe I do have food issues.  Just  don't want my baby to eat crap. [/quote]

Buy nitrate free bacon.
It won't kill your kid to eat processed food for a couple weekends a year when grandma has free reign in the kitchen. It might not be worth the battlet. You could always suggest that you do the grocery shopping or ask for her to get nitrate free meats where possible. [/quote]

I agree. I very much understand your concerns, OP, and your baby is young, so every bite of food feels important right now. But life will be more pleasant for everyone if you can make sure that your food preferences don't become food fixations. It is very possible to raise kids who eat healthfully 99% of the time but still drink the koolaid at camp (or with grandma!).[/quote]
