When I was a kid some of the hardest lessons to learn were where my favourite foods came from.
I remember giving up eggs for a few months after learning that they came out of chickens.
I spent a lot of time on my grandparent’s farm and made friends with some of the livestock so I was devastated when I learned that meat didn’t just come from the store.
Even as an adult, I turned my nose up at trout that someone other than me caught.
Same with eggs from a friend who kept chickens.
Somehow the food not coming from the grocery store just didn’t seem safe.
It seems more common these days that kids just don’t know where food comes from. (besides the grocery store)
Have you or your kids been through this?
