    @Paul_Is_Drunk: I said that at one time too. For some reason, when it is your spawn, it is reasonably acceptable provided you take her outside and hose her down. Alternatively, you can have the dog lick her clean. That is why I have labs.

    I'm convinced yogurt is one of these mana-from-heaven miracle foodstuffs. I'm not talking about the sugary glop that retails in U.S. supermarkets, but fresh yogurt with no additives, synthetic preservatives or thickening/coloring agents. As a yogurholic, I was very impressed when I came across a stat documenting that the shepherds of the Caucasus Mountains routinely live into their 100s. Their diet is extremely sheep's milk yogurt-intensive.

    It probably has a lot to do with the "good bacteria" present in yogurt cultures, which promote an uber-efficient digestive cycle and help your stomach and intestines to break down nutrients.

    Seriously though, that picture is the stuff of nightmares. I've always been a bit yogurt ambivalent. But I just can't look at someone covered in bacteria cultures good or bad. Seems wrong. I just want to bathe her, and never let her near dairy again. Parents always think this stuff is friggin cute. Why? Why is a child covered in pink goo, which will shortly turn into a putrid, milk-asshole stink (because anything milky that's left out and made gradually warm ostensibly smells like ass), just as it becomes sticky, filmy, and overtly more disgusting by the minute ...why is this a time immortalization ? Food + Face = Nasty Crap parents should never condone, unless they're prepared to eat everything that sticks to their offspring's face. Because let's see how cute regurgitated okra tastes.

    All I know is, you will need to pry the Greek plain yogurt with a side packet of honey (which I buy at Trader Joe's) from my cold dead hands. That stuff is the absolute best stuff I've ever eaten in my life.

    @AnnaZed: Word. When I read the labels on all the Organic Whole Milk yogurt brands and saw that Organic Fucking Cane Juice was the first or second ingredient, and it had more sugar per serving than candy, I wanted to denounce the lying lying lying marketers from the hilltops.

    @AnnaZed: Definitely. I'm Indian, and we don't mess around with yogurt (I grew up eating my mom's homemade stuff). These products bear so little resemblence to actual yogurt. I tried Activia once for shits and giggles (but mostly for the former) - the texture was just gross gross gross.

    RMHMH is not one to tell people how to raise their kids - it's hard under the best of circumstances. However, there is yogurt for sale and marketed to kids made by Oreo and Trix (for FAT kids), among others. Parents are able to decide in the vast dairy section of the grocery store that they can give their kids good, healthy yogurt or Trix yogurt. It's a conscious decision.

    @If_I_Had_a_Poodle: i take care of my nieces and nephews and younger sibs (ages 3-14 now) from my dad's marriage to a younger woman. and my house gets unflavored, low fat, organic. if you want to flavor it, put some real fruit in it. drinks are water, milk and fresh made juice or smoothies (actually my little brothers hate yogurt but love to toss it and some fruit in the blender and make smoothies).
    the little one got homemade baby food. i mean how hard is it to steam up veggies and mush them in a food processor.

    FASCISM -- (1) A political philosophy that exalts a nation above the individual and stands for a centralized autocratic government headed by dictatorial leaders, severe economic and social regimentation, moral disintegration, and forcible suppression of opposition. (2) See Obama, Barack Hussein. (3) See Pelosi, Nancy. (4) See Reid, Harry. (5) See Party, Democratic. (6) See Thugs, SEIU (Service Employee International Union).
