Did your mother ever tell you that there were starving children in China when you refused to eat a certain food that she served you?

@Quizzical Lol.

@Thevy29 I love Greek food. My daughter had a babysitter from Venezuela, only 3 hours a day but one day she told me “Your daughter is so good to eat everything I offer her. I made little bake empanada meat pies and she told the lady “My mom makes these but she puts apples and raisins in them.” Those other 3 boys always turn their nose up and say “yuck” at what I offer them. I asked them what their mother feeds them and they say “McDonald’s food”...she was a manager at a local McDonald’s.

@Thevy29 lol

@SW-User Birds eat all day long though.

@cherokeepatti Yee, but sometimes they wont eat new things 😯

@SW-User My parakeets were scared of those millet sprays because when I was holding them to wire them in the cage they were wiggling around. They acted like they were alive and were some kind of snake or something. They wouldn’t even stand near them and cowered on the opposite side of the cage. The next morning i noticed that the oldest bird had been picking the seeds off of his millet spray. The others probably saw him doing it and they started eating theirs too.

@Anonymartyr I bet the food was excellent.

Lol@EarthlingWise

@EarthlingWise this and telling us if we didn’t work we didn’t get to eat (just teasing) but I took it serious and worked hard for a child and I knew I deserved to eat...

@FreeSpirit1 Yeah I heard that one too. With a little plaque on the wall, “Menu for today—Take it or leave it.”

@FreeSpirit1 @cherokeepatti 😂 yessss!

@NativeOregonian Nope just by itself, it takes the metals out. I think charcoal wouldn’t hurt though.

@cherokeepatti The charcoal would help with the other VOCs.

@cherokeepatti Like the taste of the cilantro itself, that is what I would use the charcoal for LOL

@AbbeyRhode My mother horribly cooks eggs, in the microwave sometimes, which will stink up the apartment the rest of the day.

@NativeOregonian Yuck. Mine likes them well done, and browned. I can't stand them that way.

@AbbeyRhode I prefer fried over easy, or a soft folded omelette, never scrambled.

@cherokeepatti 😳 WTF!!! That's seriously effed up....😣😣😣😣

Ok, thank you....gearing up my Mom tools with new weapons. 😎 Thanks, Patti! 😘

@Vivaci There is a video that has surfaced of Venezuelans following a garbage truck and scooping up food with their hands from inside the truck and eating it...that’s how hungry they are 😭😭😭

@cherokeepatti Whaaaaa?????? 🥺😱 Oh nooooo.....😭 Last I heard Russia is buying that country or something.....

@SW-User Lol my brother used to suggest the same thing 😂

@JollyLily another cheeky brat lol

@BittersweetPotato nowadays it’s because there are children being used to harvest the cocoa beans 😔😢 while they should be getting an education...
