[Serious] Do you know of any processed snack foods with some vitamins?

Trying to keep my very picky eater 3yo healthy as we’re (hopefully) expanding his diet. Right now the only foods I can get him to actually eat are McDonald’s, a specific brand of yogurt, banana bread, some crackers and some bars. Refuses any beverage besides water. (He’s likely on the spectrum.)

Maeve ,

Why processed?

Maeve ,

Op, I agree with getting some gastric testing, if possible. I may or not be divergent, testing is cost prohibitive. But I was diagnosed as a child with IBS and still have occasional issues after food poisoning set backs a while ago. After getting that straightened out, a decent probiotic cap with fiber set me back on track until I could eat a mostly veggie diet, until the robber Barron corporate overlords started pricing decent food so crazily. You can add nutrition to crackers or bread with nut butters if your toddler will have them. If toddler requires more sweetness, try adding as little maple syrup as possible, and honey if his practitioner deems it ok.

Have you tried home made sweet potato fries (oven baked or air fry is fine, you'd have to look up how to oven fry them), or if your child will eat baked sweet potatoe with a little real butter they are highly nutritious and gut friendly. It's just hard to say because one of the many reasons I may be asd is it doesn't matter how much I like the flavor of something, if I don't like the feel or consistency of a food, I'm simply not having it.

Imagine what humanity could do if we used our resources for humanitarian purposes.

Maeve ,

The world I imagine wouldn't need tunnels, or land grabs or genocide.

Maeve ,

Even though these people are more that to anyone, including society at large, Capital Hill and the feds themselves, they leave them alone, still thinking they are in control of these groups: compare and contrast how they are treated and then how BLM, antifa, and college students protesting genocide are treated.

Maeve ,

Wow. I was thinking of Buddhist and Taoist chaplains, Or UU. personal gods may or not be held, but they don't usually push them on people, although the former two can and do have abuse allegations brought, some substantiated. Idk about UU.

Maeve ,

So what exactly do you think UU Ministers and ToS clergy do?

Maeve ,

How you conflate those other things with Luddite is.... fascinating.

Maeve ,

Thank you for clarifying, and the link. I'll check it out!

Maeve ,

I wonder how much mh insurance will cover for residual issues?

Maeve ,

"Go toward" but never actually get there.

Maeve ,

Made me smile, body and soul. Thank you.

Maeve ,

Most people will believe whatever they want to believe, regardless of what you say. That's their problem, you do you.

Maeve ,

I understand you, because I've been there, plenty of times and may occasionally be again, dependent on variables, I suppose, with regards to expectations and anxiety. What I'm trying to convey is, sometimes (often), saying too much is as bad or worse than saying nothing. Know when to bet, fold and call. At least if you say nothing, there's nothing to twist up.

Maeve ,

Farming is hard, physically and mentally, especially organic. And necessary. This is wholesome.

Maeve ,

This is amazingly awesome! Thanks for warming my heart.

Maeve ,

Yes, I'm wondering if helicopter is the only access currently, as well. That's wild.

Court upholds New York law that says ISPs must offer $15 broadband (arstechnica.com)

Trade groups claimed the state law is preempted by former Federal Communications Commission Chairman Ajit Pai’s repeal of net neutrality rules. Pai’s repeal placed ISPs under the more forgiving Title I regulatory framework instead of the common-carrier framework in Title II of the Communications Act. 2nd Circuit judges did...

Maeve ,

There's still a very stacked and extremely corrupt scotus.

Maeve ,

A heavily regulated capitalist country, for sure.

Maeve ,

Happier in general, healthier, threat of extinction farther away. The greedy wouldn't be happier, and it would require a better educated, more vigilant populace without the illusion they too, could some day become part of the leopard class. We'd need better auditing of books, public and private. Fines that were actually punitive, with the certainty of incarceration (more humanely), as well as public record of wrong and correcting measures, and certain nationalization of businesses caught in malfeasance a second time. I think essential goods and services should be nationalized anyway, but that's an unpopular opinion on my instance.

Maeve ,

Because that's exactly what it is.

Maeve ,

It's about time for a social media break for me. Not because I disapprove of these stories being posted, but because it's so flipping tiresome knowing just how many of the industry leaders are sociopaths.

Maeve ,

You can disable copilot, but it's complicated.

Maeve ,

That's the thing, and it's by design: you can't begin to imagine anything different. Maybe this will help?

Maeve ,

Go read Karl Marx, beginning with Capital and The Communist Manifesto. Neither are long reads, and I should reread them myself, when I get a breather and my brain isn't mush.

Maeve ,

This isn't McDonald's and I'm not your oncall personal spoon feeder.

Maeve ,

Yes, I wish I'd ignored this thread altogether.

Maeve ,

Socialism light? There's a beginning point somewhere.

Maeve ,

We used to actually do that.

Maeve ,

That and Harris was vile in several cases she prosecuted before she was veep.

Maeve ,

I was late getting a flip phone, but I did in 02. Everyone else I knew already had mobile devices.

Maeve ,

Are you kidding? Everyone I know, even the kids, prefer sms. You can answer when and/or if you have time or feel like it

Maeve ,

Not everyone lives in densely packed urban areas.

Maeve ,

Where is this?

Maeve ,

I quit with WhatsApp when Meta acquired it.

Maeve ,

And? I can see several neighbors' residences. We barely get cell signal half the time, and the only Internet currently is dodgy WiFi, which also regularly goes wonky. A lot of times we can walk into nearby establishments and leave empty -handed, because Internet is down and we don't have cash enough in have to make our purchases.

Maeve ,

I have a couple of friends and a family member on signal, the rest I text with, except for a neighbor who is too old to be great at it, and a blind friend. Oh and the elderly lady up the street. I guess my point is plenty of people use SMS, I guess it's whatever people prefer in a given area. I loathe voice, except on rare occasion when I speak with my kid or a good friend of mine, halfway around the world, but that's through signal, and it's always great to voice/video chat with him and sometimes his friends or SO.

Maeve ,

Jesus. I remember my first cell was $35/month, 350 minutes of talk, no data and unlimited texts, before smart phones. On contact.

Maeve ,

It's funny. My general region uses text but really only phones if it's really important right this moment. We do have the phone conversations when it's too much to text though.

Maeve ,

🤨

Maeve ,

Maybe it's like getting hot and throwing off the cover.

Maeve ,

That too. We each have our own bag of tricks.

Maeve ,

This made me laugh. Is she shocked she got caught?

Maeve ,

Aww that's sweet!

Maeve ,

You already know

Maeve ,

Wow, there is so much good info on how the buddy holds mental distress. You've never heard of that?

Maeve ,

Sores from syphilis lol.

Maeve ,

Yeah. I remember the opening chapter from Shogun. I wondered if people just got so used to the stink they didn't notice?
