DadaMama: Wow. Just ... wow.

Wow. Just ... wow.

Ok, so we aren't health nuts at my house, but we do try to be mindful of what we're eating. This is startling:

By age 2, according to a 2002 survey, 1 in 5 babies is eating candy every day. And the No. 1 vegetable for toddlers isn't pureed peas or carrots; it's French fries.

Babies?! Eating candy?! My 4-year-old doesn't eat candy every day. And it's not like you can't get something besides french fries with your Happy Meal these days.

I mean, GEEZ, people.
