[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think there's a big piece that hasn't been mentioned, a lot of times in family food is love.  It's how people show love for the people around them.  They want to provide tasty foods for their loved ones to enjoy.

There's a lot of family traditions around food.  Even in memories when people start talking about things in their childhood.

I don't think you should be so hasty to discount what they do, maybe it's not your thing, but you shouldn't poo-poo it just because you don't approve.[/quote]

Oh god. No wonder there is so many obese people in society with all this “Food is love” crap.[/quote]

You think the Uber Eats crowd and "let's just order pizza" people are setting the examples for healthy eating?[/quote]

There is an in-between option. Scrambled eggs for breakfast is just as (or more) healthier than scratch-made waffles and bacon. And takes a fraction of the time to make[/quote]

Right. Which is why I make scrambled eggs on a workday/school day morning. Pancakes and the like are perfect for vacation—we got to sleep in, there’s no agenda for the day beyond beach bumming, we’re going to take our time and celebrate with eggs, bacon, and pancakes. [/quote]

GOOD FOR YOU THAT'S NOT WHAT OP WANTS TO DO

Jesus with the toxic mommyhood[/quote]

OP doesn't have to do anything. She's martyring herself for no reason. Her family would probably prefer she get out of the way since she's probably no use anyway.[/quote]

You are a toxic personality. I hope you know that, deep in your mango salsa-filled soul.[/quote]
