Dear Mom,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There was a column in this morning\u2019s Helsingin Sanomat entitled \u201cEven dogs are fed healthy specialty foods while kids are still eating packaged food.\u201d<\/a> In it, journalist, blogger and food writer Emmi-Liia Sj\u00f6holm talks about browsing an online pet store and noticing how it was full of specialty foods aimed at keeping your pooch in good mental and physical health. There are foods for weight control, hypoallergenic foods, foods that promote good digestive health and foods specially designed for \u201cpicky eaters\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She goes on to lament about how so many Finnish parents are willing to feed their kids pre-prepared packaged foods. And she talks about some friend of hers in LA who says that the biggest trend there is to breastfeed your kids until they\u2019re two. \u201cIt\u2019s so easy because you never have to worry about having food with you and you know for sure that what you\u2019re feeding your child is healthy and free of additives.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oh please, crazy ladies in LA, go f**k yourselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I don\u2019t know Emmi-Liia personally. She seems like a nice girl. But as the parent of a dog, a 2-year-old and a 4-year old, let me tell you a couple of things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1.    Dogs eat shit. Literally. Most dogs I know will eat anything (except maybe salad), so getting them to eat glueten-free, hypoallergenic, organic food inspired by the diet of wolves isn\u2019t really that big of a challenge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2.    Kids don\u2019t eat shit. Literally. You might think now that you\u2019re only going to feed your kids organic vegetables that you lovingly picked and prepared by hand and then chewed up yourself in order to make it easier for their tiny digestive system to handle. Everyone thinks that. And then they have kids. Now, fast-forward a couple of years. After a long day at work, you pick your precious children up from daycare and listen to them scream all the way home. The only thing they want to eat is cookies. So when you discover that they actually like Kokkikartanon lihamakaronilaatikko<\/a>, you\u2019re pretty darn pleased with yourself. I mean, unless they’re lying (doubtful), it has milk, egg, pasta, hamburger meat, butter and some spices in it. It might not be as healthy as those specialty dog foods, but I’m pretty sure it tastes better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So yeah. To all the mothers out there who are doing their best and living in reality, I\u2019ll see you at the supermarket later. And to those ladies and their boobs in LA, maybe medication would help?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Love,\nLissu<\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
