  • Have I told my story about eating a rubber band because I didn't want to eat the raisins on top of my couscous? Anyway, I had to pull a rubber band from my butthole all because of raisins.
  • I feel like raisins should only be eaten on their own or in trail mix. They get fucking weird when baked.

  • I dunno, a chewy oatmeal raisin cookie is pretty good.

    It's no chocolate chip, but I wouldn't throw it away.

  • @kiraliz2 I don't hate raisins, I just don't like what they lend to baked goods.

    Wait, what?
    It's quite clear...

    Raisins = pulling rubber bands from your butthole.

    What's the issue?
    You're right. I'm being dense, sorry.

  • Funny story re: foods that are not bad. I got the kid to eat squash last night and I was all "See? It's not bad, right?" And of course now everything she eats is: "Is not bad, mommy! Is not bad!"

    Stellar review right there.
    SQUIRREL!!!

  • I like oatmeal raisin cookies. And chocolate chip cookies. And gingerbread cookies. And cookies, period. I even like white chocolate macadamia nut cookies, and I'm not big on nuts. BUT DisneyWorld has white chocolate chip cookies. Not white chocolate macadamia nut cookies, but straight up plain white chocolate chip cookies. I'm not sure if DH or I was more excited...

  • I got a ham and cheese croissant from Specialty's for lunch. 

    I didn't know it had cream cheese in it.  Cream cheese is horrible.  I'm eating it anyway because hungry.

  • WHITE CHOCOLATE IS NOT CHOCOLATE

    Should we just turn this thread into every food war we've ever had on TB?

    Never said it was. But it's tasty, and I like cookies with it in them. Lots of things aren't what their names imply, but are still worthy things.
  • I got a ham and cheese croissant from Specialty's for lunch. 

    I didn't know it had cream cheese in it.  Cream cheese is horrible.  I'm eating it anyway because hungry.  
    So the "cheese" in the titular "ham and cheese" is cream cheese?  So a ham and cream cheese croissant?

    :::shudder:::

    I'd return it.  Everyone knows that a ham and cheese is ham and not-cream cheese.
    Nooo.  It has ham and cheddar and cream cheese.  The food description says only ham and cheddar.  I need to scrape the cream cheese off because it's harshing my mellow.

  • I can only abide cranberry almond crunch cereal when it comes to raisin-y things.

    Craisins are the shiz

    So hate me but I just read all of this from finish to start. you know what my excuse is? Nothing. I work out when I have time. I drink beer like it's going to go out of fashion tomorrow and I snuggle with my husband in front of the tv for the hours after Oli goes to bed. Are those excuses? Maybe to some. To me, they are my lifestyle choices.

    And white chocolate is chocolate if you buy it at good places. I've posted articles before but there's no educating you ignorant bishes.
    White chocolate, by definition, is not chocolate.  Like, at all.  It's cocoa fat.

    White chocolate is never chocolate because there's no cocoa liquor in it. It's cocoa butter and flavoring. The chocolate is completely removed from it. It's tasty, but it's not real chocolate.

    Edit: I should have refreshed sooner. You ladies already covered this.

    LIES.  It tastes like nothing.  So it is useless as "chocolate".

  • What I don't understand is those of you saying you don't have time to workout because you only have an hour or so after work with your kid until they go to bed.  Well if your kid goes to bed at 7/7:30, that's like 3 hours that you have to exercise before you have to go to bed.  I would kill to have my kids go to bed that early.  They usually aren't asleep until 9pm and then I put in my workout DVD.  Sometimes I don't finish working out until 10:30pm, which sucks, but I do it because I'm not going to make excuses.  If you really want to be healthy and exercise, you'll make it happen,  While, I don't really agree with the line in her photo, because I think it comes off as bitchy, I do think she is right.
    But you don't workout every night, do you? I could probably find it in me to do it 2-3x a week after my kids go to bed at 8:30 but that leaves about 0 time for my husband and I to spend time alone. As much as I'm sure my husband appreciates me looking good, it will mean nothing if I sacrificed all that time we spend just talking and enjoying each others' company to do so.

    If you buy it at Ghirardelli, Godiva and there were some other local places I listed last time, they actually have cocoa solids in them.

    Also, fruit and chocolate together? MMMMMM

    But fruit pies? nasty!
    But it doesn't have cocoa liquor in it. Cocoa liquor is what makes chocolate chocolate.

    If it has cocoa solids in it, it's not white chocolate.

    I won't even touch that fruit/chocolate thing because I might dry heave.
    This is true. It would no longer be white, lol.

  • I need to try the fruit and powdered sugar thing. My kid is a fruit hater. Luckily the pedi was okay with her weight at 18 month. Not stoked, but okay with it.

    Your taste buds are obviously broken.

    Also awesome: white hot chocolate.

  • So if powdered sugar is the magic powder for getting kids to eat fruit, what is the magic powder for veggies?  Because my kid will starve himself before he eats a veggie.

    For us, parmesan cheese. He loves that shit.

  • I butter the shit out of bread so my daughter will kind of eat the bread. Mostly she just eats the butter off the bread. I figure it could be worse.

    Ranch.  

    My oldest would starve himself before eating ranch. He's always hated it. Before he discovered vinaigrettes he would eat salads plain. Or sometimes squirt ketchup on it like dressing, but mostly plain because I hate ketchup and it made me sick to watch him eat it like that.

    I want to marry cheese.....including that of the cream variety.

    I could live without Swiss cheese existing though. And Bleu.
