You’re quite right Rose. The same applied when me and my brother were kids. Mum cooked a meal and you ate it. There was none of this, cooking seperate meals for everyone.
I have to confess though to doing the same sometimes. For example if me and the OH want a chilli, the kids can’t eat that because they really don’t like spicey food, so I’ll cook them something else. If I’m doing a roast though, they do eat that, and they do eat vegetables. They don’t get chips/chicken nuggets/dippers/burgers etc every night. In fact they are lucky if they get chips once a week.
I know what you mean by kids menus though. All they get offered is chips and nuggets. It’s no wonder we have an obesity problem in the UK. Apparantly lots of kids are obese by the time they start primary school, hence one of the reasons M&S has started up it’s *plus size* range of uniforms for kids.
