Things Not to Feed a Child

Specifically, things not to feed a child who is not potty trained.
Alternate title: how to make enemies in the church nursery
I don’t like potty humor, except for maybe this one case. But parenthood brings you into certain situations that you wouldn’t discuss otherwise.
Today is such a case.
It’s for a public service, though, not a cheap laugh. I know there is at least one new father who reads this blog, and there are things he might want to know so he doesn’t have to learn the hard way. In order to bring him up to speed, I am publishing this list of foods to avoid giving your child if you will be changing his diaper within the subsequent 24 hours.
- Blue Moon ice cream
- Corn
- Blueberries
- Spinach
- Chili
Apparently the color blue is not easily digested.
And I wonder why we even eat corn since it appears to not be used at all by the body. Surely there must be a better use of one’s energy than eating and attempting to digest corn. Unless maybe it is just exercise.
Parents who have gone through the diaper-changing phase:
Any other foods to avoid?
He said, “Behold, I have heard that there is grain in Egypt; go down there and buy some for us from that place, so that we may live and not die.”

Colored frosting; whether dark chocolate or green or purple or red or blue or black.

Oh yeah I’ve got one!
Green chile chicken enchiladas.
Had that Saturday, and we’re still paying for it!
As the new dad you were referring to, I appreciate the Monday Morning Quartering, er, advice.

I assume that you gave Evan only a little bit of the enchilada. So now you know that he’s a red chile guy.

Jana and I both got a big kick out of this, SG. Thanks!
