    Literally everybody. Well okay, not literally. But figuratively literally everybody.

    You’re a small child incapable of providing for yourself, what else are you going to do? You eat what you’re given or you starve to death.

      My kids. If you don’t like what we made there’s plenty of stuff you can make yourself.

        That’s a good one, will borrow it 👍.

        Though my son might just do that and slap some mayo on a piece of bread and wash that down with water.

          The more I think about it, maybe that’s ok? You need some vegetation, maybe take an apple or banana, but mayo has protein from the egg, right?

            It’s not bad, but it’s not really good either. Sure, mayo has proteins from the eggs, but it also has a lot of fat (oil), so… some lettuce or a tomato would be nice, not just water 😒. He freaking loves water, you have to have a water bottle with you at all times. That is good, I know, but you can’t replace veggies with water.

      I did try when I was younger, I just have an aversion towards it (it’s really really boring to me). I learn when I was a older, like 20, 21.

          I have tried different things to make it interesting for me, like maybe making more backed stuff instead of boiled or steamed… no, I just have no interest in it.

          Eating and cooking are like means to an end for me. I’m hungry, I eat. That is probably why I could eat my mother’s cooking without problems, lol 😂…or why I have no problem taking codliver oil without any extra stuff on it (like lemon). I’m just not that much into tastes I guess. I like tasty food, but if the food is not tasty and I’m hungry, I’ll eat just about anything.

    My first wife didn’t make her son eat anything he didn’t want, but he had to try it, once. Worked out.

    It was sometime around then that I learned, and realized, that kids have different taste buds. They make Oscar Meyer wieners bland on purpose.

    My kids? Scrawny little fucks won’t eat anything. At all. I don’t know how they function. It’s like hugging tiny skeletons. But, that was me as a little kid. All the adults frustrated as hell with me.
