to not want to eat food my DS has made at school?

[SoleSource]

Looks OK but cannot help imagining it is covered in germs.

He eats it though.

(does not know I do not, trust me on that one)

Yes. Very unreasonable.

You're back, SoleSource! There was a concerned thread yesterday regarding your whereabouts, missy!

YABU

Ooh aww lol

Thanks

I'm eating cheese scones now.

My 13 year old DS has cooking this term and 9 times out of 10 whatever he has made doesn't even get home because he's eaten it on the bus!

I wouldn't eat it either.

I'd let DC eat it if they wanted to- they after all saw how/when it was made.

I often came home with stuff I'd made at high school that was served up later that evening for dinner. Stew, lasagne, pies... I think my mum always enjoyed them. I know my brothers certainly did. My finished products were sometimes photographed by the teacher so I must have been quite good at cooking. Even at 12/13. :o

Ds is at a special school. When they cook in class or at his afterschool club; they just do one "batch" - so a dozen cakes or scones between them so many hands have been in it; he comes home with one thing! they made bread once - in a breadmaker and he brought one slice home!!

They must just get one stir of the mix each and i don't see the point; learning to make a cuppa or a sandwich would be more use.

Yanbu. I wouldn't eat it either! Something about childrens hand washing that I don't quite trust.

I remember a boy in my class was obsessed with snot.
He used to put it in all the food he made. It was revolting. When the teacher wasn't looking he'd cover one of his nostrils and blow as much snot as he could onto the food. He once did this inside an uncooked lasanga. He found it hilarious.

Obvs not suggested your DC do this!

Sole yanbu. I remember making a cauliflower cheese and funding a slug in it which I just flicked out and gave to my mother to eat. There were surely slug poos and particles in there.

If the food's been cooked in a hot oven all the germs will be zapped anyway. Any food you don't cook yourself could have been cooked by someone who hasn't washed their hands properly.

Snot. The fire in the crack of mount doom would be powerless against snot.

YANBU! At 1yo DS's Christmas Fayre they were selling biscuits the children had 'made' themselves. DH enthusiastically bought a load and I have been working my way through them, wincing, trying not to think how many bogeys, hairs, bits of carpet fluff, dribbles and other creative additions I'm ingesting. There's a reason children don't work in restaurants.

YANBU I never eat anything made by children, they are forever picking their noses etc. I have work colleagues who bring in cakes made by their kids, they get offended when I say no way am I eating that.

I've always said how kind it would be to leave it for Daddy. If they don't fall for that, a little sleight of hand and a greedy dog work wonders. No snot for me, thanks.

This is why everybody should have a dog.
You just discreetly give it to them, and tell your little darlings it was delicious.

The food smells funny.

Seeker give me your address. I'll send it to.you :)

You bunch of miseries!
So far DS has only brought home a cake this term and I have to say it wasn't bad... Well, the part that wasn't welded to the tin was pretty good anyway....

Winter.Vomiting.Bug. YANBU.

Bleurgh. Never eat kid food. Yuk, grotty little rugrats who don't wash their hands ever.

The only person eating DD's nursery cooking is DD. while she is only 2, this will be the case for the foreseeable future. If she cooked at home under our supervision we would eat it.

The replies have made me laugh.

Thousands of grubby hands a over me buns. Yuck!

Obviously the children making the food you won't eat are making one fundalmental mistake that DS seems to have overcome. He cooks things at roughly the same temperature as the sun, therefore there are no bugs anywhere within a mile radius of his food.
I still owe his school a new cake tin, even soaking it in boiling water isn't getting off the remnants of victoria sponge...

Jingle lol!

Funny, I posted here about a year ago...wondering if I was being unreasonable to not want to eat Christmas treats that had been prepared by various neighbors (and their kids)

Apart from a few (maybe 3 posters) I was told I was being so, and should just be grateful for their offerings. Times seem to have changed

Well op YANBU god knows how things are prepared , or how the kitchens are!
