Poor Nutrition And Food Choice
“C’Mon Man! French Fries And Root Beer For Breakfast?”
For those of you who don’t know, there is a segment on Monday Night Football called “C’mon man!” which is about bloopers and blunders in the world of American football and sometimes Canadian football.
And this is about a blooper and blunder I recently witnessed in the world of nutrition and food choices.
The other day I was at A & W getting some breakfast.

A & W serve healthy eggs from healthy hens and I had 2 boiled eggs on a dry toasted whole wheat bun which I only ate half the bun.
So, in my view this isn’t such a bad food choice.
While I was there however, I noticed a young couple getting breakfast for their 2 young children. 5 and 3 years old I am guessing.
This was about 9 to 930 in the morning.
The kid’s breakfast was a hamburger, French fries and a mug of root beer.
Now I will let the hamburger slide because AandW do make an effort to serve up healthy beef, but the French fries and root beer?!
C’mon man!!
What a way to start to clog the arteries and mess with the blood sugar first thing in the morning!
It is no wonder that obesity is becoming a problem in kids UNDER 10 years of age in this country.
And these types of food choices have been proven time and time again to be the building blocks for heart disease, diabetes and cancer.
Feed your children what you want, but there are far better food choices than French fries and root beer for breakfast!
