Benjamin has been familiar with "trading bites" for about as long as he's been eating solid food. He gets a bite of something he likes (sweet potato, banana, etc.) after he eats a bite of something that's not his favorite (green beans, bland chicken, etc.)
He's even been offering to do it lately... "Tade Bites, Money?"
But he's been growing up to the point that his meals are not just about favorite foods vs. not-favorite foods, but about what he wants to eat at this moment vs. what he will want to eat at the next moment.
The other night he was eating hot dogs and something else i can't even remember. Daddy was trying to get him to eat the "something else" but Benjamin looked up totally seriously and said, "But Daddy, der's more hot dog right der!"
He's found us out. Perhaps our "trading bites" days are over .
