Picky Eaters Prints

The Last Thanksgiving

'I'm glad I'm a carnivore: Nobody forces me to eat my vegetables...'

"I made my special lengua casserole! Let me serve you..."

"I changed my mind about eloping with you, Billy....my mother didn't fix broccoli for dinner after all!"

"You know, if lima beans, cauliflower and broccoli tasted like candy and ice cream, we wouldn't have to go through this every night!"

"Fee-fi-fo-fum, I smell Thursday's gluten-free lasagna!"

'May future generations forgive you for eating that sausage...'

'Broccoli is biodegradable, you know, in case you want to throw it out before I eat it.'

"Please don't kill me."

'Okay mum, I'll eat it all up. But I doubt I'll grow big and strong on this muck!'

He wanted a different one.

'Oh come on! I can't be that bad!'

'You had better eat those intestinal organs or there's no dessert for you!'

'Strained Carrots Again? What am I being punished for this time?'

"Mummy said dinner was brussels sprouts tonight. What about we drop by the park and see if the old man sitting on the bench can feed us instead?"

"Something will fall down from the sky and it will be the end of the world - just because you didn't eat all of your carrion for lunch, my boy!"

"I'll have the vegetable lasagne, hold the vegetables."

"Mouse? No. They contain cheese and I'm lactose intolerant."

'Do I have to give thanks for all the spinach, or just the bite I'm going to eat?'

'Is it organic?'

'Could I trade all of this for more of that?'

"Life is so unfair! There are already ants in the cake but none in the broccoli casserole!"

"Trust me, it tastes good – you won’t like it."

'Aww, mom! Pineapple upside down cake? ...Again?'

"I guess that pretty well debunks the fruits and vegetables are good for you myth."

"Come on, honey, try just one Goliath pea. It's organic, locally grown, and GMO free."

'I say it's spinach and the heck with it!'

I've learned that it doesn't do any good to slip broccoli to the dog under the table.

"That cat is just finicky...I think the cat food tastes just fine! How about you, Herb?"

"It's an ugly nose, but at least it gets rid of some broccoli."

"Beans count as healthy vegetables but jelly beans don't? Not faaaiiir!!!"

"There were hooves in my lunch! I told you I don't like hooves."

"Do you want the rest of this mouse? It tastes gamey to me."

'And for the Queen of Whiny Eaters, two pieces of bologna, cut into quarter-inch squares, coated with Abe's Barbecue Sauce...'

'I don't want to eat this. I want to eat organic foods.'
