Your Children's Ponciest Food Statement

[NotQuiteCockney]

This one's for the fish ...

DS1 demands blood oranges, and will request them over all other oranges. Also, he prefers homemade popcorn to cinema popcorn.

What poncey food requests do your kids make?

Oh, god, DS1 loves moules. Well, now he's discovered frites, he's not so mad for them, but still.

When he was about 20 months, we took him to a French family-style moules + frites chain. The staff were lovely, looked at DS1, and said "we'll bring an extra plate of fries". DS1 proceeded to hoover up several plates of moules.

Ok, spidermama, your dd wins. She only drinks Badoit?

mine won't eat pizza without olives. DS1 takes mozzarella and olives to school for hismlunch. DS2 loves mussels- but their favourite food is fresh dressed crab. They don't like macDonalds food (will beg to go in, get toy then refuse to eat).

Last January took them into shop to choose birthday cakes, after MIL let me down. Did they want Spidey, Thomads, grand Prix.... uh uh. DS2 went for Carrot cake, DS1 toffee gateau

Can you imagine turning up at the school gates in THAT t-shirt FJ Almost tempted myself

LOL CountessDracula at Claridges. FMF Am sure Wetherby Whaler would oblige on sushi front. Will ask, perhaps after pubs shut on a Friday as see what response is and while we're at it - 'Wasabi' does sound like something a leery drunk would say just before he threw up.

Have had dodgy sushi from Sainsbury's in Harrogate though. Is that the best North Yorkshire can do???

t shirt for sally there....

sure you don't want one, emmylou?

This thread is reminding me of Schmoo and his mother's vegan lunch box website.

And pass me the t-shirt FJ but I want mine to read "I make my own organic chicken nuggets while scoffing dh's box of Roses"

Oh, OK, I just wanted to confess that.

ROFL

hmmmm...whats a nik nak then? Can you put them in sushi?

(Can I point out that actually, sushi is not very good for you? White rice...lots of salt...its just expensive)

Don't Dorritos leave tell-tale orange mouth?

omg this is great am so i wish i could get ds to say anything but 'cheese sandwich please mommy'

'I really like Red Russian Curly Kale' from 2.5 dd1 (I blame riverford veg boxes)

ah don't worry, wrap the bread around the cheese and call it a california roll.

2 year old son in Starbucks having a 'Babychino' (i.e. frothy milk with chocolate sprinkles on top), stands with his hand on his hip, takes a slurp, says: aah, good coffee.

2.3 year old DD yesterday while drinking orange and passion fruit juice and a pastry in a coffee shop...

'But this is not pomegranate juice mummy. Can I have my pain au chocolat now?'

in responsre to his dad saying he was eating a roll ds stated

It's not a rolly daddy it's a brioche... aged 2 years and a couple of months

DD is very good in the booze aisle at the supermarket.
But mummy Daddy only likes Stella, if there is no stella get marstons please.
And not Cab Sav again mummy, get a chardonnay.
Heads swivel when she does this

DD is now 19 and at uni became a minor celeb due the fact she is the only person her mates have ever met who has NEVER eaten a McDonalds!! She now thanks me for not giving in to her nagging when she was little.

Grandma to ds1, aged about 4: Shall I make you a sandwich then?
Ds1: Have you got any smoked salmon?

Ds2: What's for dinner, Mummy? Has it got spinach in it? I wanted spinach! Waaaah! I want spinach! Spinach, spinach, spinach..." [tantrums ad nauseaum]
