Holy crap on a cracker!

in Babies: 6 - 9 Months

Has anyone been over in 9-12 today?  Big drama on giving your baby junk food.  It's crazy! 

https://community.thebump.com/cs/ks/forums/thread/37601741.aspx

So what is your view on junk food?  I am going to try and cook as healthy as I can for Mason.  I didn't really have that growing up.  I know that it's hard to do that everyday with DH and I working full time.  So, if we have to squeeze a happy meal in every now and again I am fine with that.  Everything in moderation I say.

    I think the whole organic hysteria is a bunch of horse shiit anyway.

    I dissagree on certain foods. I try to buy the dirty dozen in organic whenever possible, but certainly don't buy things like bananas or oranges organic. I think there is a lot of benefit to avoiding foods that are seceptible to retaining a lot of pesticides and insecticides. I don't use them in my own garden either.

    That said- that whole post was a clusterfuck. We eat relatively healthily, but, ::gasp:: we eat out at least once a week, sometimes more if we're busy. LO hasn't had anything horribly unhealthy yet, but honestly, the only reason I haven't given her any ice cream yet is because she's allergic to dairy. What kind of childhood doesn't include ice cream?! Oh, and we're huge grilled cheese fans at our house- with tomato soup (not always organic either- oops).

    I'm a big fan of moderation.

    Anyway, I'll probably be like my parents and withhold candy and fastfood until baby is 3 or 4.  But once he's a toddler, he'll probably get pancakes, grilled cheese, PB & J, etc.

    I wonder how much that OP on that post you linked is going to beat herself up when 1. fast food is going to be the fastest thing you can find (think 10hr travel by car and not wanting to pack an ice cooler because you need the space in your vehicle for other stuff) and 2. when her child eats something she considers "junk" one day. 

    One day that high horse is going to throw her from it's back.

    Completely ridiculous! I really don't care about buying organic or not. Maybe now is not the time to mention that my MIL gave DD a taste of frosting a couple weeks ago, and I gave her a fingertip-sized tase of banana cream pie on Sunday...she's probably going to be totally obese now and make HORRIBLE food choices...
