[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 12-year-old wants a Tater Tot Bar at her birthday. Which fixins would you include, besides sour cream, chili, scallions, and ketchup?[/quote]

Don't forget to tell your guests that is on the menu.  Some kids won't like just tater tots fyi[/quote]

By 12, kids should learn to be polite and eat what's served. Out of a bar like this I'm sure even the pickiest eater can find something.[/quote]

To me this sounds delicious, but if you do like not tator tots, the rest are toppings.  So what would the kids eat?  The hot sauce?  Ketchup?  A bowl of melted cheese?   The point of saying the menu is not so parents can ask you to change it, it’s so parents know whether to drop off a hungry or full kid.  It does not cost the OP anything to mention tator tot bar in the invite.

Plus, most kids are great at politely not eating.  But this is always followed by parents insisting they kid eat or questioning them relentlessly why they are not eating or barely eating.  [/quote]

There's always cake and likely there will be other food too. If your kid is very picky then just always have them eat before or bring something small they can discretely eat. Also the host may change the menu up until the last minute so why commit if it's subject to change based on a 12 year old's whims? At this age I don't see the point in worrying too much if a tween might get a little hungry at a party and not eat the food. What's the concern?[/quote]
