What do toddlers around the world eat 3527So your name is Tanveer Badal, you're a "journalist" from America (? really? my what a melting pot), and you've already asked folks in Dubai working Mom G-group what...
Really? I must have missed that day in Mommy clbutt. Would make for less expensive report card reward dinners out had I trained my child to enjoy junk food, you know $6 at McD's rather than a $75 sushi tab. We've always eaten real food not a bunch of over processed "food" the child got what the adults were having unless it was an overly fire-y dish. The summary of common foods for American children serves only to insult those who choose to offer good nutrition and give a feel good afirmation to those who can't be bothered to waste time or money on feeding the little darlings food that has nutritional value.
I remember being a kid and having friends who's parents made two dinners every night one for the kids and one for the adults. The kids got boxed mac & cheese, mystery meat hot dogs, frozen cardboard burgers, spaghetti-o's and a plethora of other inedibles. The parents dined on fresh vegetabes, nice meats, grains, and other yummy things. Hell was staying with said friends for a whole week once when my parents went to New Orleans, had it not been for almost as gross hot lunches at school I'd have starved.
I dare say you forgot essentials like mud pies, crayons, worms, sand, cat food, ants, and anything else that said child is told not to eat.
