[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is illegal to eat or drink on Metro.

[b]It is entirely possible to last a half-hour or so without food or water.[/b]  As for occupying your toddler, do you not have any non-food/drink alternatives in your bag?

And when did eating and drinking become a diversion (rather than a source of sustenance), anyway?

Crazy, we are all going crazy.[/quote]

Oh sweetie. You don't ride Metro much, do you? Just took me an hour and a half for what should be a 45 minute trip. Good thing I'm not a baby or a young toddler, and I can handle that without a meltdown. But if I had a kid and goldfish crackers with me, you'd better believe I'd have used them. [/quote]

My guess is former PP doesn't ride the walk and use the metro during the summer much either. By the time I got to the metro station and/or my destination I'd be thirsty and we'd be under a heat warning and I'd be lightheaded - especially on code orange or code red days. If they really want to fine me for taking a few sips out of a reusable water bottle they have issues.

I'd only pull out a snack if we were to meet delays like above. Kids are 4, 2.5, and 8 months. The 4 and 2.5 year old can understand "we'll eat when we get to ___" or "we'll eat in 10 minutes" but if that 10 minutes turns into 30 or 60 you'd bet I'd pull out a cracker.[/quote]
