Just after a year. She had nuggets and fries a handful of times. We don't get fast food very often. Maybe once every two months. So that's when she'll have it.


I grew up eating mcdonalds quite a lot. And I'm perfectly healthy!! Chat Icon

DS is 4 and never stepped foot in McDonald's, Burger King or other fast food establishments. He's had french fries and burgers and pizza but not from those places. I try my hardest to make sure that he eats fresh food for dinner every night...be it a fresh meat burger or grilled chicken and steamed veggies. I'm not saying he's forbidden to eat there, I just don't want to make it a habit of grabbing something quick to eat at those places. I'd rather grab a quick sandwich, fruit or a slice of pizza.



Almost the same here. DS is 3yrs 4 months - i never took him for fast food.
My MIL (without our knowledge) started taking him & his cousins in the springtime, so around 3 yrs old, to McDonalds about once a month. At first I was disgusted, but I hold back and allow him to have a "treat" with grandma. This is the way it was for me growing up... it was a once in a while treat - not a normal dinner. He will be allowed there for birthday parties too. It will just never be a regular thing for us.

My twins are just under 15 months and never had fast food yet.

I think it was around 18 months because we were out, I was pregnant and starving. He has had fast food 5 times in his 3 years. We don't really eat it so when we do, I don't mind him having it.



Same here

We don't regularly have it so she rarely does

Even if *I* ever do, I will when I'm out alone b/c DH hates it and I don't want DD eating it Chat Icon

DD will be two in three weeks and she's never had. I am not against it..just do not see the need for her to eat it at this age.

probably about a year old. he only eats the french fries though, no happy meals or anything. hes not big on burgers and the only nuggets he likes are the perdue ones. i dont see anything wrong with the occasional fast food meal but he doesnt like any of it.Chat Icon

They are 2 and had it exactly twice because they were starving and we were away and there was nothing else and another time I was driving and they were screaming and I was not close to home. I don't want them to get used to it. We don't really even like them eating from a restaurant.
