Prankster Dad...

[Dasota]

See, I was a gullible kid. I had cousins that would routinely do crap to me. Much like that. Classic one being that I can't eat cranberry sauce anymore. I was 6 or 7 and at Thanksgiving cousin A tells me to take a huge bite of cranberry sauce, and cousin B tells me to take a swig of milk to wash it down. It was the nastiest thing to me.

I had nor have any problems with my cousins screwing with me like that because I knew that they all got it in some way or another , the oldest from my uncle and the younger one from his brother and father I'm sure. It builds a thicker skin in my opinion.

But this situation? Doing it at a store and in front of other people? And the kid seems smart enough to know he was being fooled too! So dumb and cruel, since the kid's embarrassed now as well.

When I was little and coloring easter eggs my dad told me that the color wouldn't stick unless you drank a tablespoon of vinager! I was confused; I was pretty sure the vinager went in with the dye, but dad said so, so down the hatch! It was awful, I cried, mom yelled at dad and I got some chocolate Last time he played a trick on me though! Now I just remind him of it every time I want to start him on a guilt trip

Pook kid. Count me in with those who hope they weren't his parents.



Now, see, my baby actually loved lemon when we slipped her some with her orange slices one day. But she's just weird like that. (Raw onions, anyone?)

I am told that I used to eat onions like apples when I was very little. I can't stand them now.

But it reminds me of what I did to my sister while the family was eating lunch at a place called Little Mexico. I told her I would pay her $5 to eat a jalepeno slice . I have never seen my mother laugh that hard. I did pay her too. This had to be about 15 years ago now.

But as to that guy telling the little one to drink it, that was not cool. If the little ones want to try something on their own, and more than likely were told ok but you won't like it - now that can be funny.

Seems to me the kid thought if he did it, he'd get some chocolate milk. Doesn' sound like he did.

Poor kid, I probably would have bought him a bottle of Chocolate Milk myself.

My 1 and a half year old son loves sour food. I gave him a dill pickle spear at a restaurant once, and he happily sucked away on it. He also loves to share all my sour candy, and begs for pieces.

Sorry...

what is half and half and why is it so bad that the kid drank it?

[RetailWorkhorse]

Half-And-Half is 50% heavy whipping creme and 50% whole milk. It's not sweetened so it doesn't appeal to most people's tastebuds.

I use it in place of milk sometimes (like when I haven't bought milk in eight months but happen to have picked up a pint for a recipe).

*raises hand* Um, that would be me. Since I was about 10. I still end up getting everyone's raw onion from their salads dumped on my plate, & I have less tolerance than when I was a kid.
