Lorna Awarded the Secret Seed Mingo Mung The Mighty Messenger book 5/5
I thought the book looked like fun for the kids and me too! I rat the book at great quality, Aimee really .liked the book and we read it several times. The illustrations were fun and captivating and she enjoyed me reading it to her. Aimee enjoyed the story very much and found it easy to understand, also very stimulating. The book was great, I never thought my children would eat mung beans but after reading the book and watching them grow they seemed excited about it! I would definitely buy more of these books and recommend them as this is a great way of introducing the kids to growing and eating new things. Lorna Gordine – Aimee 5 Years
Today from our friend Sateen we learnt about yet another horrific fact about junk food … its not even food! Well, at least its not the kind of normal food that would decay over time. This picture below is a McDonalds Happy Meal after one year sitting on a shelf.
The photo was taken by Joann Bruso, author of Baby Bites, aimed at toddlers. Like us at the Secret Seed Society, she is trying to get children to develop good eating habits from the start. This is what she had to say about her Happy Meal experiment:
” My Happy Meal is one year old today and it looks pretty good. It never smelled bad. The food did not decompose. It did not get moldy, at all. The next time you’re tempted to purchase a Happy Meal for your child, think about these photos. Food is supposed to decompose, go bad and smell foul…eventually. Flies ignore a Happy Meal and microbes don’t decompose it, then your child’s body can’t properly metabolize it either. Now you know why it’s called ‘junk food’.” Read more…
Surely we’re smarter than flies, ants, and mice! They don’t touch this stuff, maybe we shouldn’t either.
