Re: When did you let DC eat...

I am a bad mother. My kids probably tasted each of those things between 12 months and 2 years.

ETA: Robbie started eating sushi at 5. He likes spicy tuna with tobiko and crunch - but not much else. Noah tried it last year and didn't like it. Still won't touch it.

Re: When did you let DC eat...

Ale has had all except sushi and popcorn.

Popcorn is the only thing I am not eager to give her.

Re: When did you let DC eat...

1. Peanut Butter- Just recently she tried it at about 19 months but we have no peanut allergies in our family so it really doesn't matter
2. Popcorn- not yet- she is a choker so it makes me too nervous
3. Seafood (shellfish)- Shrimp- probably about 10 months at her cousin's b-day at Benhania
4. Chinese Food (take-out)- Really early on- maybe 8 months
5. Fast Food (McD's, Burger King, etc)- rarely eat this stuff- probably 15 months
6. Sushi (the raw stuff)- not tried yet- no sushi since I have been pregnant and DH hates the stuff.

Re: When did you let DC eat...

DS is 15 months old.

1. Peanut Butter- not yet
2. Popcorn- not yet
3. Seafood (shellfish)- not yet and not for a long time- maybe when he's about 5. My mom has a severe reaction to it and I don't want to chance anything.
4. Chinese Food (take-out)-probably around 10 months. (My ILs gave it to him when they were babysitting)
5. Fast Food (McD's, Burger King, etc)-He's had french fries since about 9 months on occasion (not necessarily from those places) but otherwise, he hasn't had any (we don't eat it outselves)
6. Sushi (the raw stuff)-not yet

Re: When did you let DC eat...

1. Peanut Butter- not until 2. No allergies in the family but I'm not a fan.
2. Popcorn-not for a while, choking hazard
3. Seafood (shellfish)-Not until at least 2
4. Chinese Food (take-out)- we no longer eat it, don't want MSG and the chemicals they use to tenderize the meat/chicken. I make stir-fries at home.
5. Fast Food (McD's, Burger King, etc)- not planning on it, we don't eat fast food.
6. Sushi (the raw stuff)- In a few years, maybe.
