Had to fight my son for the tofu!

[ghostlykisses]

Ok I just have to share this with the world. My 6yo son is a big meat eater like his father. Today I made some spicy baked tofu strips that I planned on using in a couple days worth of lunches. When I was eating some I offered my son a cube thinking he would say no but he ate it. Then he kept coming back for more. He kept asking for it. I think he ate about a 1/3 of a pound's worth!

Maybe this will be easier than I thought. If I can replace some of the meat with other things we will be in business :hamster:

That is cool! My 8 yr. old grandson will not try anything!! He wants to be veggie yet refuses all our wonderful food!! Except for cheese..... :D

i make smoked tofu for salads and sandwiches and its difficult to keep my kids from snagging it off the pan after its cooked--i end up with not enough left for the recipe i was intending to use it for! i hate having to lie and hide things from my kids, but i WILL!!!!lol

i have this same problem with my wendys-loving junkatarian bf. if i make tofu i have to hide it. :lol:

that's a sweet story :) I have a junkfood boyfriend but when I went round to eat Sunday lunch with his parents I brought some tofu and he kept stealing it off my plate when they weren't looking :p

awwww good luck with that!!!! I do that to my parents and siblings all the time. I'll make them some vegan or vegetarian meal and not tell them till after what it is and they end up liking it.
my father told me he would never eat gluten free products because they taste terrible BUT i ended up buying gluten free waffles and took them out of the box to save room in our freezer and he ended up eating the rest of them.

funny how things work out :hungry:
