Kid food : the challenge of feeding children in a highly-processed world / Bettina Elias Siegel.

Summary:

Most parents start out wanting to raise healthy eaters. Then the world intervenes. In Kid Food, nationally recognized writer and food advocate Bettina Elias Siegel explores one of the fundamental challenges of modern parenting: trying to raise healthy eaters in a society intent on pushing children in the opposite direction. Siegel dives deep into the many influences that make feeding children healthfully so difficult - from the prevailing belief that kids will only eat highly processed 'kid food" to the near-constant barrage of "special treats." Kid Food combines original reporting with the hard-won experiences of a mom to give parents a deeper understanding of the most common obstacles to feeding children well.
