Kids Fed Unhealthy Foods Learn to Prefer Them. Most preschool children develop a taste for salt, sugar and fat at home, and quickly learn which types of brand-name fast foods and sodas meet these preferences, U.S. researchers say. | All things Family, Children, Preschoolers, Toddlers and Parenting!
This is so true and something we should all watch out for as we supplement our once so very cautiously monitored meals and snacks with the occasional yummy treat. It starts coming at you more and more and seeping into their diets from places such as school and friend's houses before you even realize it. Our little ones have started preferring the unhealthy choices over the healthy ones and I have to tell you that it is going to be quite an uphill battle turning their preferences around once again. We are facing this uphill battle even though we did everything right in the early years so I implore you to follow the above-mentioned guidelines so that you don't have to go through this same battle but more importantly that your youngsters start out life with habits that will follow them throughout a lifetime.
