Jackson's always been very interested in eating healthy. He loves fruits and veggies and would eat them non-stop if I let him.
Recently he saw something on the Disney Channel that has him protesting all sweet or salty foods. Captain Carlos tells him to only eat healthy snacks. So, now he asks me if there is sugar in everything before he'll eat it.
We went to a birthday party last Sat. and he would only eat fruit for dessert.
I did explain to him about all things being good in moderation. As long as he eats healthy for his meals that a little sugar won't hurt him too much. At first he wasn't convinced, but I think he's starting to get it...especially after I baked some chocolate cookies this week.
I wish he had such passion and convictions about a few other things. Goes to show you that kids really do believe everything that they see on TV. He's tried scolding me about recycling too, because of something he saw on TV. If only I could get our house rules broadcasted, maybe he would obey them better. ;-)
