I don't know how many times I've heard the question, "What's There To Eat?" From my hungry children and a hungry husband too when they've come home from a busy day. If you are a Mom I bet you have too! I have always tried to keep my cupboards, pantry and fridge stocked with healthy foods. Here is a neat video I thought you might enjoy, it talks about the choices we have regarding the food we feed our children and ourselves.



My kids were deprived, they ate very limited amounts, if any of the usually kid types of processed foods when they were growing up. No sugary cereal, plastic cheese or processed meats for my babies! However, I wasn't a fanatic, once they were in school they ate a hot dog for lunch, once a month with their peers. Hot dog day was a fund raiser for their school. Fast food was a treat several times a year when we traveled to Granny's house. I felt it was more important to focus on their every day diet, offering them natural or real foods like whole grains, dairy, fruits, vegetables and protein.

They're young adults now, and the good news is they mainly choose healthier food choices for themselves and know the difference. I feel like I did my job pretty well! What about you, are you concerned about the food you feed your family?
