After picking through it for several minutes, he randomly says "I don't like cooked beans".
I gave him a strange look and said " ohh-kayy.... There are no beans in this."
He said "I know. But when you cooked beans awhile ago I didn't like them and I puked."
I asked him several questions trying to pinpoint what he was talking about. Finally, while smiling,
I said "Josiah, you are a WEIRD child! And I am sorry to tell you that cotton candy is not on the food pyramid, it is not a vegetable and you have to eat other things" (he's been to 2 fairs in 2 weeks.....)
He looked at me funny and said "What is a FOOD pyramid??!"
I was surprised as Jessica has learned about it every year in school and always talks about it, so I asked "Haven't your teachers taught you about the food pyramid??" (sorry Cheryl and Nick......

He replies"........no......." (long pause, thinking......)
"Is that in Egypt??"
