Outta sight, outta mind right? That’s how I’ve preferred things when it comes to the food we eat. I’d rather not know because then I don’t feel compelled to change anything. However, with kids in the home, we’ve really got to become more conscious of what they’re eating and try and keep them from the “fat curse”. I’ve been too lazy about it. Big J is almost 5 and it’s taken us this long to really get to a point where we’ve decided to need to make some changes.
What tipped us over the edge was watching Food, Inc. recently. Yeah, we don’t buy any documentary hook, line and sinker, and this one is no different, but it really caused us to think about all the fruit snacks and chicken nuggets. We’re doing our kids a disservice. I’ll let you know how it goes…

Just watched Food Inc last weekend, it was pretty insightful. Definitely didn’t really think about where my proteins come from that in depth before. I’ve recommended it to a bunch of my friends.
