we were late leaving PIL's house yesterday after FIl's birthday party, it's a long journey and the DC (3.2 and 20 months) were starving. So, we ended up having to stop by the motorway at a Burger King for dinner.
I try to avoid feeding them crap (but am also not a handwoven organic lentil burger monger) but TBH I though they'd love it.
So, we got two childrens' meals for the DC and something for ourselves and sat down to eat. DC looked thrilled at the novelty.
After happily munching away at the chips for a bit DD had a bite of her burger whist DS studiously ignored his chicken nuggets after a having a little nibble. She chewed a bit and then wretched, I thought she'd swallowed it but a couple of minutes later she asked to spit it out. Poor little sausage really couldn't eat it, said it was revolting.
Now, she's 3, so she can pull some tricks when faced with new foods. The rule is that she has to try new stuff but doesn't have to eat more than a 'try'. But, this was definitely a genuine reaction and one she's never has to anything before, I was really quite surprised.
A couple of minutes I may (rather evilly) have said 'Mmm, DD, this is Macdonalds, it's not very nice, is it?'.
So, AIBU to be pleased at how revolting she found it. I obviously didn't make a big thing of it, just took the offending object away and said that everyone has things they really don't like and it doesn't matter.
