[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A cream cheese sandwich? I disagree with everyone saying that's a good lunch, especially if she's eating that everyday, all year. [/quote] +1 Cream cheese = empty calories [/quote] You’re imposing weird adult diet culture in a child with this. Cream cheese has very little “bad” stuff in it — low in sugar, sodium. It has the good kind of fats, a little protein, and a little calcium. It’s totally fine if served with other things. Kids need a ton of calories because they burn through them so fast. Cream cheese on a sandwich or bagel will get the kid to eat it, fill them up, and give them energy. Your second grader should never worry about “empty calories”, just try to avoid the junk items like candy, chips, soda, etc. But all those things are loaded with sugar, salt, trans fats, and preservatives. Cream cheese is not.[/quote]
