to put my judgey pants on over this?

[LadyBiscuit]

Fully expect a huge flaming but I can take it.

Yesterday I was in M&S at the till and the woman next to me had a child in her pushchair who was about a year old. The woman handed the child a plastic container of food that she'd just paid for saying 'the lady says you can have this now' and the little girl stuck her hand in and started eating. It was a tub of 20 cocktail sausages.

Can we add this to Fruit Shoots and Greggs sausage rolls? Or because they were from M&S do they not count?

Take those bloody pants of and while you're at it get rid of those blinkers.

wind your neck it.sausage.not fucking crack cocaine

next

I like cocktail sausages.

I know a child whose diet consists of chips, chicken nuggets, lettuce and cocktail sausages. And pringles. I kid you not (although I am a bit hazy on the details ). I think that unless this was that s child it's not worrying.

But surely this is OK ....

It isn't just AIBU

It's Mumsnet AIBU

(said in sultry M&S style voice)

these are not just shit cocktail sausages

these are M AND S shit cocktail sausages

mmmmmmmhhhhhh

x post!

ah, bollocks

I have been known- on loooooong days out- to nip into M and S for some mini eggs, let the dds eat em in the double buggy and kid self it's ok, because they are, after all, eating eggs

...at home I'm a stern lentil obsessed sugar dodger

Ooh weegiemum - it's Dervla Kirwan that does the M&S ads you know

I am all for restricted foodstuffs with DCs - makes life so much easier. My younger DS eats four things when he is with me: cereal, toast, pasta with pesto and fish fingers & chips. That's it. Oh and fruit and fromage frais/yoghurts. He apparently eats a quite varied diet elsewhere but is adamant that is all he will eat at home. Makes shopping easy though

Do Fig Rolls count as one of your Five A Day ?

< fervently hopes so >

yes. As does Branston pickle

Also Jaffa Cakes

And pickled onion crisps.

I have a friend who solemnly and seriously counts jam as one of her five a day

Good

And Ketchup contains Lycopene. Which is a Good Thing

Oh yes definitely - anything that has been near fruit or veg counts. Otherwise how else am I going to be able to tell people that DS is keen on spinach when all he eats is spinach and ricotta ravioli? (OMG have just remembered that mad thread by that woman who went mental because her nanny served her pfb m&s tortellini when she was supposed to prepare fresh food every day )

And if you put a handful of raisins into your 'rocky road' bars they become instantly healthy!

ahhh..so the victoria cream sponge I brought from M&S today can be classed...it has strawberry jam..

LadyBiscuit, now that sounds like a thread worth rubbernecking on.

My one year old eats sausages regularly. And there is a tradition in Australia, if you go into a butcher's with a child, the butcher will hand said child a slice of Fritz, which is like the unholy spawn of sausage and Spam. So there's that.

'Spamage'hahaha..sounds lovely ahem..bet my kids would bluddy love it the carivores!

Nowt wrong with Spam

tortoise it was a true classic - I will see if I can find it. And I'm fairly sure she was deadly serious. If she wasn't she managed to keep a straight face until the end

Mmmm, spam fritters, the only thing i would eat from my primary school canteen, back in the 70's.

OP I think you're being very judgey. From your description, the Mum is obviously suffering from depression and the child has special needs and is awaiting the results of serious medical tests. You really shouldn't jump to conclusions about people YOU KNOW ABSOLUTELY NOTHING ABOUT!
