Yucky Foods

Tonight at dinner I noticed John wiping the salad dressing off of his plate so that it would not mix with his spaghetti. John hates salad and he only ate it because he knows that he should eat his vegetables. I laughed and said, "That was a funny thing to do. I think I might put that on my blog." John said, "Well, you have to hear what Adam has to say about this. Come here, Adam." Adam came and John asked, "Adam what kind of food does mom like?" Adam said, "She's likes yucky food." Then Adam looked up at me and said, "She likes good food too." John asked, "What good food does she like?" Adam pointed to the spaghetti. Then John asked, "What yucky food does she like." Adam pointed to the salad.

A few days ago John took Adam alone to get his glasses fixed and Adam wanted to chat. He said "Sometimes my mom makes yucky food for dinner" followed by "She likes yucky food, but she also likes some good food too". When John asked what yucky foods mom liked Adam said that I like yucky foods like salad, and chips (something John could not understand) and salad.

Along the same lines, Adam asks me what we are having for dinner every night and almost every night he says, "yuck, I hate that."
