A Breadstick by Any Other Name...
Monday, February 9, 2009 at 9:55PM
Michaela really loves the breadsticks from Pizza Hut.
There on her plate lies a rectangularish piece of bread, minus the parmesan I suppose...but seriously, what is the difference between the bread she is eating and the bread that is left neglected on her plate? There is none. Bread is bread. Yet, the crust remains inedible for her (Christian, too).
As strange as this differentiation seems to me now, I do recall doing the same thing when I was young. There must be some developmental stage wherein the perspective on bread rises to a more mature and sophisticated level, making it possible to eat the crust after all. I am so glad to have reached such maturity and sophistication myself...

LOL!!! My kids are the SAME way! I don't get it. Mike always walks behind them and scoops up the rejected remains. My kids don't like to eat the crust off sandwich bread either. Dominic isn't as bad...he will eat it and not bat an eyelash (usually) but Alexis REFUSES and will do anything to escape eating crust. ??? Whatever...
