![]() ![]() ![]() If you are trying to do damage control and educate your kid's taste buds at pre-school age forward, I still don't see how these recipes could work. You want your kiddos to eat more fruits and veggies? You have to start them at the baby stage. Just reading the recipes made my stomach turn. Therefore, I consider this review a sort of public service message: use it well. I'm bitter because this book was kind of expensive and I felt duped. My alternative title would be, "How to Give Your Kids Diarrhea". So why puree them? Doesn't that defeat the purpose? Speaking of which, maybe the sneaking-in-the-vegetables thing is purely for roughage (sp) purposes. I guess my biggest question is, are this lady's cooking tactics really of nutritional value? She (probably) can't hurt the kids with her soupy concoctions, but isn't it true that once you boil the heck out of vegetables and liquefy them, the vitamins and other good stuff go completely down the. It's only when you sit down and give it a good read that you see that this mom is insane. Who would do all of this, unless they were actually, certifiably crazy? I don't know how this book got published! About 1% (or less) of the people who purchase this book are going to follow the strange plan of this loony lady.Īctually, to answer my own question as to how it got published, it's because it has an appealing cover and title, and when you flip through the thing it's filled with colorful photographs of delicious-looking recipes. ![]() The deal is, if you want to "sneak" healthy stuff into kids' foods (or, into your own food, as I was hoping to do)you have to make an actual major lifestyle change: prepare to spend hours at a time to boiling up vegetables and and liquefying them in a blender, then freezing them for a future date when you can trick your kids into eating them by saying, "Hey, kid, how about some banana cream pie, partly filled with liquid squash?" Obviously, I'm not trying to be objective, and I'm kind of in a bad mood as I'm writing this :( Obviously, I'm not trying to be objective, and I'm kind of in a bad mood as I'm writing this :( I feel like this BOOK is deceptive!
