How old were your kids when they had their first Mcdonalds?

[DebitheScot]

Or KFC, Burger King etc.

Just felt like starting a possibly contraversial (can I even spell?) thread!

[DebitheScot]

controversial

[clayre]

one year old we're not all as bad as you

[LucyJones]

2 - can't remember how close to becoming 2. Maybe 2 and a half

[Edmond]

whilst they were still in the womb

[DebitheScot]

Hey Clayre, you're not meant to show me up. I was keeping quiet until I saw what other people said!
It was an emergency!

[Enid]

no idea

I think dd1 was about 4 and dd2 probably about 2

[LucyJones]

why Deb - how old? And what sort of emergency?!!!

[clayre]

why an emergency? we took them to kfc on monday and they didnt eat it!

[danceswithatruckloadofminieggs]

Yep, in utero here, esp ds...had dd who was 18 months, horrific backache, god bless the drive-through.

[colditz]

ds1 was probably about 2, ds2, not yet.

Nbot at all probably, because it's too expensive for what you actually get. Ds2 is just as happy with a 10p toy from a charity shop.

[bozza]

DS was 5 and DD was 2. DS has been twice (once with friends) and DD has been once.

We do other bad things though.

[danceswithatruckloadofminieggs]

Oh I'm mean, they never get happy meals (they haven't figured that one out yet)

[speedymama]

DTS are 3yo and have not had a McD or BK. They had some of our KFC chicken just before they turned 3 and did not like it. They like the chicken I cook though

[DebitheScot]

well emergency is maybe a bit strong, I guess ds wouldn't have faded away if we'd waited till we got home but he wouldn't have been amused.
We were at an out of town retail park and lost track of time and so decided that some McD chicken nuggets wouldn't do him much harm (he didn't want the chips which was good coz it meant I got to eat them). He was 10 months old

[Mercy]

I think dd was about 3 when she had her first BK, ds younger. They were both only really interested in the chips tbh, although dd, now 6, will now eat the burger too.

We've never been to Macdonalds or KFC.

[Edmond]

I hate mcdonalds actually
but we all like wimpy. I am inclined to think that the wimpy doesnt actually 'count' as junk food

[IdrisTheDragon]

Both DS and DD in utero .

[KathyMCMLXXII]

Can't remember, probably under a year.
Once we were over the purees we've just been giving her what we were having and a few times while on a long journey we've stopped for a MacD.
It's better than Burger King but not nearly as good as OK Diner.

[DominiConnor]

DSs are 5 & 3, they've never been into McD's indeed DS1's only interaction has been to peer through the window looking at the crap people inside.
We use elitism as a peg to hang nutritional education on. Not sure what would happen if you tried to make DS eat a McD scrotumburger, but teeth would probably be involved...

[LadyTophamHatt]

When Ds4 was born we went to Mc'ds on the way home from hospital!!


(drive thru though)

[geekgrrl]

2 weeks. big babies need to be weaned early, dontcha know?!

[puddle]

Mine (7 and 4) have never been or asked to go.

I wouldn't take them (not my idea of a nice place to eat) but they will probably go at some point with schoolfriends.

[nally]

a year old

[elliott]

Not yet - they are 5 and 3. Its just not somewhere we'd be likely to go, I mean what's the point when there's much nicer places on offer?

[Clayhead]

They haven't. dc are 3 and 5.
