Summary: Why wouldn't they eat it?
Comment: I found most of these recipes to be full of sugar and high fat ingredients. I am by no means an extremist on the subject, but I just did not feel these meals were very healthy. A better choice is Desperation Dinners, in my opinion.

Summary: She is soooo funny... great recipes, too!!
Comment: This is my second cookbook from Ann Hodgman. Her cookbooks are very entertaining to read, and the recipes are great! I would recommend this book to anyone with picky eaters in the house- kids and adults!

Rating: 4
Summary: Hilarious commentary; wish it had nutritional content info
Comment: My favorite part of the book was the funny commentary about the challenges of trying to feed a picky eater healthy food. I actually was laughing out loud while reading some of it. My intentions to feed my children healthy food have been a problem since they turned one year old! I am ashamed to admit my kids live on water, chicken nuggets, bread, and minimal fruit and vegetables.

I was disappointed that there was no nutritional content for the recipes. I was curious about that because many recipes are laden with (what I consider lots of) dairy! There seems to be an over-reliance on recipes that contain butter (in large amounts), cream cheese, shredded cheese, or sour cream. For example the puffy pancake contains 2 Tablespoons of butter per serving. The Oven Fried Chicken also has 2 Tablespoons of butter per serving. There are many recipes with a lot of butter and/or other dairy products. It seems to me that the success of most of these recipes lies in that most children love to eat cheese and other dairy products, so it is added to almost everything.

Many of the recipes are more appealing to me than my children. Because my children have dairy and soy allergies, unfortunately, most of these recipes cannot be converted for their use! (Many substitutes for cow milk products cannot be baked, for example.) If your children have dairy allergies or sensitivities or if you are looking for foods with a lower fat content, this may not be the book for you. If your kids love cheese and dairy products and are at all open to trying new foods, you probably will have more success with this cookbook than I did!
