[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nope we are all about moderation and love actual sweets. Why set them up to have food issues and distorted to thinking about food?[/quote] +1. Not only this but the tricks only work when they are small anyway. My kids like smoothies and banana bread, etc but they aren’t fooled into thinking it’s an Oreo. [/quote] I don’t understand this. Why does it have to be processed to be a treat? Banana bread is a treat, so is a cookie. [/quote] Your kids sound young. Once they get past the age of, maybe 8 or so, if you offer them banana bread or an ice cream sundae they are going to choose the sundae. And that’s ok. Your kids are learning to choose moderation, it is being chosen for them which is likely to backfire. [/quote]
