  • Eating out  is a consistent part in family lives . Moments of sharing  and bonding , especially during weekends and holidays, so necessary but not always great for our wellness  . It’s up to us of course to choose the best food options time after time , balancing  between our wallet, taste  and wellness . Although there is something that as far as I know happen just in USA, or at least does not happen in the european countries in which I have dined : here in the States they always bring you giant portions of fries , in addition to almost everything you ordered . This happen even with kids meal , which to me is really  outrageous  . Of course I can decide to order  fries for my kids once in a while , but for instance if I am in a vacation , or in a weekend out , I eat out 3 times a day: what kind of mother would I be if I allowed my kids to eat giant portions of fries 3 times a day , even for a week or so ? 
    It should not  be my responsability to persuade waiters (in front of my kids , that of course will get upset at me ) , that I want my meals fries free. I get the same answer time after time , and the answer  is : “BUT THEY ARE FREE”. So it’s not more about fries , it’s about the ideology to refuse something that cames for free , to make the choice to discard , or even worse , to make  them discard the fries , if I have regrettably forget to make the point before they arrive .
    Mothers have a lot on their plate to remember 3 times a day (in case of a vacation ) or once or twice a week otherwise to persuade waiters that they want their kid’s meals or their meals , to be fries free. Obesity is a huge problem in this country and good habits start from the childhood : we don’t have to be “THE BAD ONES”  while enjoying  our family time . We all Know how eating out with kids can be challenging . Please relieve our dining out from the dictatory presence of the complementary fries.
