i thought this was funny.
i am always telling my boys they should try things first, if they say "i don't like that" i ask if they ever had it. when they say they haven't, i make them try it at least. sometimes they like it sometimes not. but at least they tried it.
so this attitude kinda bit me in the arse monday with my 7yr old. after spending a good portion of the day at the doctor's office, he was hungry. i asked what he wanted and immediately got "mickey d's". so i got him mcdonalds. while telling me what he wanted he adds "caramel dipping sauce but no apples" to his order. thought that was stange but i was not eating it. so he eats his nuggets on the way home. i was just enjoying hanging with him. this is where it got funny.
he finishes his nuggets and proceeds to open the caramel. i had no clue what he was up to so i just kinda watched while i drove. this little guys dips his fries in the caramel. i was like "what are you doing?" so he dips a fry into the caramel sauce and without a word he hands it to me. now, can i refuse? no way he would let me not try it. so i had to. that was the hard part. tasting it without looking disgusted. guys let me tell you, it was really good. i think the salty fry and sweet caramel went well together. so now i know to just practice what i preach. try it before i make my mind up.
have any of you guys been through this? or anything like it? let's hear it. i know i ain't the only one dammit!

cant say that I have ever been in that position. Usually its the other way around. My kids are always like , DAD thats gross! Well now they eat ketchup in their chili, white bread mixed in navy beans, boiling sugar water poured over french toast, pringles on the PB&J
PE#1:
Can't say I've been in a certain eating situation yet with my son like that. But then again he's only 2-1/2. But he has taught me the message of "practice what you preach" in other areas. Crazy how it works.
Oh, and that does sound good Paulie. Try fries with a chocolate frosty from Wendy's. Mmmm.
