Ha! You should do the sugar measuring with her. It'll show her how much is in that 1 little tube. *NM* Avendesora Send a noteboard - 05/11/2010 04:00:55 PM
She think that is ok to give to my daughter all the time because she buys organic yogurt. It is still loaded with sugar. I buy plain yogurt then add enough fruit to get it sweet enough. I do the same thing with my oatmill, I just add some dried cranberries and it get it sweet enough for me.

I believe all news and research that supports my opinion, and dismiss the rest as conspiracy and lies.

It doesn't say anything about what you can and can't eat, it just says you can't be rewarded with Helene - 04/11/2010 11:25:31 AM 1071 Views
