[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some asshat brought CUPCAKES (with brightly neon frosting) as a group snack to my kid's soccer game last weekend. Please don't do that. [/quote] Pretty sure you're the one who sounds like the asshat here.[/quote] Nope. It was obnoxious. Several kids couldn't eat them because of food allergies and started crying. [/quote] Allergies to cupcakes? WTF? A note needs to go out prior to the first game so other parents can be alerted - especially me because I'm one of those that brings cupcakes. I don't do nuts or strawberries because so many kids are allergic to those but I've never heard of CUPCAKE allergies. I don't care if you think I'm an asshat. Kids love the CUPCAKES and my kids get to choose the frosting. If you don't like what other parents bring, dedicate yourself to providing the snacks for the season or tell you kid not to eat what I bring.[/quote] Some kids have issues with the red and other color dyes in those cupcakes. The frosting is the issue which is why many of us stick to chocolate or vanilla. I bring our own snacks. I get tired of inconsiderate people who bring crap or do not consider there are kids with food allergies - my kids have allergies to specific fruit, which means they cannot have most juices , those gummy things, crappy popsicles and much more. Common sense is to bring crackers, fruit, cheese, veggies - something reasonable. Not just neon colored cupcakes.[/quote]
