Too Cool for My LUNCH BOX*

For any of us who have ever had to feed a child we know what a pain in the rear that can be. A lot of children are picky eaters and it can be difficult to cater to what they like and don’t, and also get them the nutrition the need. One of the biggest challenges we face is packing [...]

Picky Eating – It’s Science

Kids should just eat what’s on the table, right? I mean, it only stands to reason picky kids will turn into picky adults if they’re indulged early on. Besides, there’s nothing to be scared of – they’re just vegetables.
That said, I don’t actually have any children so I will likely stand corrected on this [...]

Cost Effective

What up Kiddies, another freakin’ Friday is upon us, who’s hungry?
In keeping with the weeks theme I have conjured up a plan to keep those wallets (and tummys) full. First off, don’t be stupid. Blowing money on ‘Fast Food’ a few days a week may keep you alive but its no recipe for success. You’re [...]

Gourmet for Less*

Eating on a budget is something that most of us can
easily accept, especially when we’re in University. We put
up with the weekly grilled cheese binge, and let’s face it
for most of us KD has been a major staple in our
cupboards since we left mommy’s house. However there
are those certain times where we do need to [...]

Sour grapes and rotten tomatoes

I hate mouldy produce. Hate it. It’s possibly one of my biggest pet peeves. First off it’s smelly and runs the very real risk of leaving a sticky spot in the fridge. Secondly it wastes money. Good, hard earned cash that was apparently spent on the privilege of cleaning up said produce. And finally there’s [...]

Nutrition Emission

I feel like the guy who goes to the gym so he can talk to people on equipment (not actually use it though – that might be dangerous!). Nutrition and myself have a love/hate relationship. I do love fruits, vegetables, and the gambit that comes with healthy eating. I just hate the time it takes to make [...]
