A friend sent her little one off to a wonderful day camp.. It was her first time at having a choice of food, beverages, etc. in a food bar type setting. And she chose a Green Colored Pop as her beverage of choice.
Of course my Friend freaked a tad as her little one has never had Sodas... My young one hasn't either. (well he has had sips of natural sodas or spritzer type things) But never the real commercial, high fructose, dye, caffeine and sugar filled ones.
Sooooo I thought I'd quiz him tonight....
<Lets pretend you were out to eat and we parents weren't there... you could have ANYTHING you wanted to drink and could pick it yourself....This fancy place would have Water, Juice, and Pop Machines, which would you choose>
Without even thinking about it, he says:
"First I'd look for water, but if they didn't have that, then I'd look to see if the have the kind of juice I like. You know the real kind, not the fake stuff"
<So you wouldn't even be curious to try to the soda?>
"NOooooooooooooooooooo!" he squeals.. "Did you know one can of soda has more sugar then I need in an entire day, and it has high fructose, and chemicals, and dyes, that is just disgusting"
Hubby looked at me and just shook his head.... and then he said.. You need to put that on your blog...
And so I did! *smile*
