Don't buy these for your kids
(give the kids a celery stick, or something...)
dented or otherwise damaged cans, what do you do?
This article in yesterday's paper caught my eye. Looks like mould to me. But. Forget the sensational headline for a minute and focus on the can. Notice how it's a little blackened around the bottom rim? I'm not sure it shows, but it looks like the can has been standing in wet conditions, the wrapper looks a little wrinkled too at top and bottom. Was it like this when it was bought? If yes, why buy it? If no, then how was it stored in the home environment? Use by date. Usually irrelevant, unless the can has been opened. We all know that once a can is opened the contents need to be used immediately, especially baby foods. She mentions somewhere in the story that the contents appeared "a bit runny". This happens when food is given to the baby directly from the can, (or jar) with saliva from the baby's mouth being transferred to the contents, which then begins to break down the molecular structure of the canned food. This isn't immedia...
Haha.
ReplyDeletePoor kids
ReplyDeleteMerle.....
I've never heard of them before! But they look very yellow and very yummy!
ReplyDeleteWow, custard, not yogurt. What shelf of the grocery?
ReplyDeleteThe skinny one would like these - much, much better than celery. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteI've never seen these, so it must be a difference between countries. On the other hand, since I have no kids, I don't have to bargain, bribe, switch goodies or hide in the closet. LIFE IS GOOD.
ReplyDeleteYes! I want to know where these are sold! What country? I love custards.
ReplyDeleteLove it. Haven't seen them in WA but will get hubby to check when he does the shopping today.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the smile you bought to my face.
Have a great weekend.
Mmm, they sound so yummy and no kids at our place any more so wouldn't have to fight over it. Fat content sounds great and custard is good for diabetics so if it available in Perth will just need to check sugar/carb content and it could be a great snack for moi. Thanks for sharing and also for a good chuckle.
ReplyDelete..and eat them only after the kids have gone to school or bed... (and hide the empty packs ;-) )
ReplyDeleteAndrew; no kids here so I don't have to hide them.
ReplyDeleteMerlesworld; they get enough treats...
Cathy Oliffe-Webster; they're Australian, in the dairy section at the supermarkets.
Joanne Noragon; in the dairy cabinet where the yoghurts and creams are, but they're Australian.
Elephant's Child; get him some, they're easy on the digestive system.
lotta joy; no kids here either, the sweet stuff is all mine!
Susan Kane; Australia, drop in sometime and get some from the supermarket.
Kakka; I found them in Woolworths in the dairy cabinet, where the yoghurts and other six and twelve packs of kids custards are.
Mimsie; look in the dairy cabinet at Woolworths supermarket, where the kids dessert/snack custards are.
Kymbo Whitford; no need to hide the empty packs, just tell the kids it was spinach mush or something.
noma, noma, nom...but only in OZ...grrrr
ReplyDeleteThe Wicked Writer; you'll have to visit South Oz.
ReplyDeleteHahaha! I love the normal Paul's custard, and a regular dessert in our house is custard and tinned fruit.
ReplyDeleteJackie K; I like Paul's brand because it is gluten free, so I can use the dollop cream without any gastric upset.
