FUN FOOD FRIDAY: Romanesco Broccoli

Want to feel enchanted by your vegetables at dinner? Try Romanesco broccoli to do the trick!

YES! It does make a difference about how much and what else you eat, not just the fact you ate a particular food.

Cupcakes are fun. So fun and we can talk about them neutrally. But what if we want to discuss some of the non-positive effects of cupcakes?⁠

I was in a conversation with Alli the psychologist on our team. She brought up the point that if we say a food is bad, kids can often wonder if they are bad. Things get sticky when we start calling foods bad. ⁠

Are some foods bad for you or your child? Possibly. For example, I’m allergic to salmon. It’s bad for me. I don’t eat it. But I don’t say it’s a bad food. I say that I’m allergic to salmon and if I eat it, my body will do xyz - so I choose not to eat it.⁠
⁠
We can say the same things about cupcakes. “Cupcakes give us a really big burst of quick energy, like a big push from mommy to the top of the swing set. And then the quick energy is used up in a flash, like us falling off the swing from the top. We might get fussy if that happens! Let’s see if we can feel when the quick energy is used up after we eat these cupcakes!”⁠
