3. Seafood (shellfish)- I will now

4. Chinese Food (take-out) He's had PF changs for a while now

5. Fast Food (McD's, Burger King, etc) he has had it for a few months on rare occasions. Mostly just French Fries (bad I know, but in typical guy fashion LOVED them)

6. Sushi (the raw stuffholding off for a while:

Re: When did you let DC eat...

DD is 2 1/2 right now.

1) Peanut Butter- not interested - I tried her with the soy peanut butter about age 2 and she didnt like it at all.

2. Popcorn- she had one piece at the fair yesterday only because DH was eating it - I wont be allowing him to eat any on front of it in future as it scares me for choking hazard reason.

3. Seafood (shellfish)-not yet probably when she is much older -

4. Chinese Food (take-out)-she has eaten some of the plain white rice on occasion since she was 2 but thats it -

5. Fast Food (McD's, Burger King, etc)- around the age of 2 she has had a few of DH's FF if we were going on a road trip but thats it. I hope to hold off on the whole hapy meal stuff until my back is to the wall. I dont eat this stuff myself so dont envision any trips there but DH does on occasion so I may be outnumbered!

6. Sushi (the raw stuff)-not until she's way older..like 18

To be honest its DH that opens up the doors to all the "fun" food not me.

5. Fast Food (McD's, Burger King, etc)- had it once when we were on a trip but don't plan on giving it to her again unless we have to.

Re: When did you let DC eat...

DD is 13.5 months

1. Peanut Butter : Ped said not until 2-3 years old so not yet

2. Popcorn : not yet

3. Seafood (shellfish) : ped said yes to fish NO to shellfish for a few more years (DH btw is allergic to crab so that might be one reason but I thought the school of thought was none until say 2 or 3)

4. Chinese Food (take-out) : not yet - I have made her stuff here but I think take out is high is sodium.

5. Fast Food (McD's, Burger King, etc) : none yet - she will have to have some at WDW but I'm hoping to hold off on this for as long as we can.

6. Sushi (the raw stuff) : not yet
