[quote=Anonymous]I’ve already posted but my parents were not well off nor college educated. We ate family meals together and my mom almost always cooked southern style homemade, learned from her mom, aunts and grandmothers. Food was not organic or “clean” and included lots of salt and butter. We also ate a fair amount of Campbell’s soups and canned fruits and vegetables. There were little Debbie snacks in our house and lots of sugary drinks (usually minute made lemonade or fruit punch from frozen concentrate to save money.) We took Capri Suns to school. However, we were expected to eat “proper” food at regular mealtimes at the table, and there was not much snacking at all. Lots of admonishment to “not spoil your supper!” To this day I do not crave or think about eating between meals. I am still thin, as are my parents and siblings, despite non of us following any modern dietary restrictions such as limiting carbs or dairy or sugar. [/quote]
