And in my fantasy life, if they did, they'd adopt my brilliant methods of persuasion.
Younger Brother: Mom, Older Brother just told me there were 7 spider legs in each taco from Taco Bell.
Me: (giving Older Brother the Sustained Evil Eye)
Older Brother: Well, I had to think of a comeback. We were fighting over which was better Taco Bell or McDonald's, and Younger Brother said the chicken at Mickey D's was made from the gross parts of the bird and held together by edible meat glue.
Me: (wishing my kids ate health food like they do in my fantasy life and heading to the fridge for a beer)

They're probably both right. It makes me a little sick to my stomach to think about what goes into fast food.
Yum. Not hungry now. Thanks.
My fantasy is that natural, healthy food appears in my kitchen magically with at least three weeks worth of tested recipes and the food prepped and ready to go.
Yeah. I think I'll have a beer, too.
Ugh. Just the words 'meat glue' are enough to make me shiver and cringe. I'll now need to find my way back to the land of denial before I find myself back in the drive through window. Meat glue. Yeah, this might take a while.
at least the beer is good and healthy with all that natural grain and hops...
Grody! Why's everyone trying to harsh my McDonald's buzz? Anyway, I'd rather eat edible meat glue (it IS edible, after all), than spider legs, so there's that.
mmm.... edible meat glue....
I know, but I do love me some chicken McNuggets...
Meat glue works great on holding together meat loaf. Not as good as Elmer's but it'll do in a pinch.
Of course they're both right and they'll both keep eating it anyway.
Years ago, when I still had the energy for extremism, I was at a restaurant with my (vegetarian) 4 year old daughter and my husband. He was eating lamb.
Daughter:
"Can I have some?"
Husband:
"you don't want this"
Me:
"Jules, that's lamb. Remember those cute fuzzy little baby lambs we saw a the petting zoo? Well somebody killed one and cooked it and now Papa is eating it."

Make it a Corona. And shove a lemon in mine....
I'm sooooo over fast food right now...
...until tomorrow.
They seem worthy adversaries. Just don't make the mistake of trying to ref that kind of nonsense; you were clever to head for the beer.
"edible meat glue"
Reason #135 why I'm glad to be a vegetarian! ;)
