To think CBeebies should have a "healthy eating policy"

Today a little girl on CBeebies made breakfast for her mummy. So far so good! But it was Cornflakes with sugar and white toast with jam. Now, I know I'm a bit anal when it comes to feeding my DDs - really I do - but sugar on cereal? Seriously, the longer they don't know that that's an option the better!

They both have honey or jam on toast now, but it was a long time before I let on that this was an option. Jam's like 40% sugar!

Mind you, DD1 (4yo) has been eating porriage with nothing else on it all her life and loving it. The other day she came back from school and announced that they made porriage and put sugar and honey in it, so now obviously that's what she wants at home. . . and of course so does her 2yo sister. I'd never say no as don't want to make an issue of food.

But CBeebies, sort it out!

I'm sure their is some kind of 'C-Beebies policy. Every other programme seems to have a 'healthy eating' message

The Suma Pear Spread is available in Co-Op as well. It is very very yummy
