"This book was a good skim. It had a whole section where it lists various restaurants and what your kids should and shouldn't eat from that restaurant. It also lists the best and worst candies (who knew you could divide them up that way?), and does a comparison of the things you buy most for kids in the grocery store. Lots of good extra tidbits and suggestions throughout the book."
"I saw this gentleman recently on Oprah (a re-run I'm sure). He gave a short eat this not that quiz, and I was amazed at some of the answers. Who knew regular bacon is better for you than turkey bacon! So, I picked up one of his books at the library (he has several), and found it very informative and helpful. I have seen it at Sam's Club for $10, so I'm going to pick up my own copy so I can have it while grocery shopping, when dining out, etc."
"Absolute waste of time. This book is about cutting calories, NOT eating healthy. I would rather teach my children to eat healthy, nutritional meals than to count calories. It is important for children to learn to reach for an apple over a cookie because the apple is good for you, not because the cookie has more calories. Children need more calories to function, as along as the majority of those calories are from healthy foods full of nutrients and vitamins and not fat and sugar. I almost expect this book to tell you to choose tater tots for dinner over veggie nuggets, because the tater tots have less calories.
The one and only time this book might come in useful is if your child is overweight, though I also believe, that had you been teaching your child to eat nutritional meals in the first place, that this would most likely not be a problem, or at least as big of one.
This book in no way take nutrition into consideration.
If I could give this book lower than 1 star, I would."
"I'll admit, I didn't read every word of this book. I skipped around and found the info that was relevant to me and my family. It was fascinating to see just how many calories and grams of fat are in some of the foods that I give to my family on a regular basis. I liked seeing that there were other alternatives to what I currently buy, but there were a few things that I didn't like. For example... it's supposed to compare "like" foods. Pizza to pizza, peanut butter to peanut butter and so on. But, there are areas where it compares peas to corn, onion rings to battered mushrooms... and I know they are similar, but it frustrated me. If my kids ask for corn and I plop peas down on their plate (canned peas nonetheless), they are not going to be happy. I wanted to see if there was one brand that was better than another... had less sodium or less sugar. I know that I can look at the can myself, but in that case, why would I need or want this book? I also wasn't thrilled with their family meal ideas. Sure they are healthy alternatives, but I just can't see my kids eating blackened catfish with a side of plain ol' black beans. And who eats applesauce for dessert? Overall, I liked the book. I liked having my eyes opened to some changes that I need to make in our diets. But (and please remember that I've got a kid with sensory issues) some of the substitutions are impractical for our family. Not to mention that the few substitutes that I checked out were more expensive or not available where I shop."
