Читать книгу The Yummy Mummy’s Family Handbook - Liz Fraser - Страница 45

I used to buy lots more processed and frozen food than I do now—going to other people’s houses and seeing what they fed their kids made me think I should be a bit healthier, and I was embarrassed if I had sudden visitors for tea and they said they weren’t allowed to eat such-and-such. Now we have frozen meals once a month, and I have also stopped buying fizzy drinks. I just hadn’t realised how much junk we consumed until I noticed what other kids said when they came to ours for dinner!

Given the massive effect food has on your family’s health, this heaps a large portion of responsibility onto your already aching shoulders. Don’t be swayed by anyone else’s bad habits or Pringles tendencies: if you don’t want them in your house, you keep them out! For all you know you’ll start a trend: 2007, the year the chicken nugget died.
