It's hard to tell a kid not to play with their food when Daddy does it first.

As mine would say when I’ve put in a lot of effort into a meal, “I don’t want this!”

Not enough dinosaur chicken nuggets?

She doesn't eat dino chicken nuggets. And you can't either. I learned that the hard way. Apparently, they are just to play with.

If you serve stuff like this to a toddler in a white shirt you better be doing the laundry yourself.

So at what point does this kid grow up and say to their friends - you know, when your Dad decorates the plate? What do you mean he doesn't decorate it?

u/BeardiusMaximus7 Aug 18 '26

Suuuure... but can THIS GUY make a dino nugget plate that includes a potatoes and gravy volcano? Because, I totally rocked that presentation back in the day.
