Comments on: For Children Now, Snack Time Never Ends in the NYT http://ourgffamily.com/2010/01/for-children-now-snack-time-never-ends.html/ My WordPress Blog Wed, 16 Sep 2015 12:01:09 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=4.2.38 By: gfcfcanadianstyle http://ourgffamily.com/2010/01/for-children-now-snack-time-never-ends.html/#comment-611 Mon, 25 Jan 2010 05:00:19 +0000 http://205.134.241.29/~ourgff5/?p=680#comment-611 Isn't this the truth? I don't understand how people can consider most of the packaged snacks "food"' let alone healthy food.

What is so wrong with carrots, apples, cucumber, mandarin oranges?? (All snack foods for my son!)

Some kids are allergic to strawberries as well.

(We actually send individual snack, as his nut allergies — cashews and pistachios are in the same family as mango — mean the school district will not allow him to eat anything we don't send. Just wanted to get the point out that there are fruit allergic children, too.)

It is SO difficult. Check out http://www.snack-girl.com/ for healthy snack ideas for kids. Lisa
