In Defense of Cute: Why Lunch Should Be Fun for Kids — Think Outside the (Lunch) Box
There is a strong segment of the breeding population that believes children should always be given the same food as adults. They say putting food designed or altered specifically for small people in a kid’s lunchbox—think sandwiches cut into cars, rice balls with panda faces made from nori, heart-shaped cucumber slices, or selections from the now-extensive catalog of “healthy” prepackaged snacks, no matter how nutritious—is a travesty. They say food should be respected in its real form with its real name.

“This quick and easy salsa can be made in just a few minutes with a food processor. Green onions instead of white onions give it a nice, mellow flavor to balance the kick of the jalapenos.

Grab a bag of tortilla chips, dip, eat, and enjoy!”
