We are trying to raise our kids w/ moderation and the idea that certain foods are healthy & need to be eaten (e.g. every supper they need to have some greenies).

We provide whole grain bread & mix our rice part white, part red, part brown. We try to limit the saltiness of their food.

But, yeah, they get some junk too. The have hot dogs at least once a week. They go to McD's about once a month. In the summer we let them have ice cream. For dessert they sometimes get digestives (a type of cookie) or some yoghurt w/ sugar.

I don't really care too much if they get "junk food" at a friend's house, because they don't go over that much.

They are healthy kids who enjoy food and cooking and are (I hope) learning about healthy eating.

My own weight problem stems mostly from portion control - I ate healthy stuff, but LOTS of it.
