[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Given the problem with obesity among Americans, I'd not be boosting the merits of the typical  American diet which includes meat.

In fact, you are probably aware that obesity has started becoming an issue in India among the middle class and the more affluent as they have embraced the American diet of burgers and pizza.[/quote]

[b]Eating meat does not have to equate to eating burgers and pizza. [/b]I absolutely love meat, but I couldn't tell you the last time I had either of those things.[/quote]

This......

I don't disagree and I do eat meat and enjoy it but if you examine the typical diet of most Americans things like burgers, pizzas and fried chicken are quite common and they are not exactly what the doctor ordered. When we eat out, we usually share an entree if it includes meat and just order an extra salad or veggies to go with the meal. It is not to do with the cost but to limit the amount of meat/poultry, etc.

Although I think the OP's MIL is unreasonable in her demands, coaching the kids to eat healthy will be good for them in the future.[/quote]
