I was going to write a brilliant, inspired post tonight but instead here's a video of babies eating lemons.

I dropped by to read an inspired post - and instead got a doughnut facepacking and cute little tykes being weaned on lemons... and somehow, I am deeply satisfied with that.

Thanks for the bland pasta tips...

i couldn't continue watching it. reminded me of once in a chinese restaurant when i was a kid and a parent at the next table gave his baby some hot mustard on a fried noodle. the baby screamed bloody murder and my parents were ready to call social services.

Hahaha good stuff.

Haha, I just saw this last night! Love it - I showed my little sister and told her we did the same thing to her, and she thought it was hilarious as well. Too bad there are no more little cousins to try this on ;o).

That's not nearly as entertaining as the time I was eating nachos and my daughter thought the jalapenos were olives (which she loves).

Ok, I'm horrible person.

Well, there's one argument for objectivity in taste!

Some of those kids were smiling though...the rare few, tomorrow's foodies perhaps?

Words cannot describe how unhappy and cranky I was at work today - tired and sad and London doesn't seem to understand that summer is a season that exists in other parts of the world. This post literally made my dad. I kept laughing and then wondering - why do people *do* this to their children?
hilarious.

We just adopted our 8-month old daughter from Guatemala and when we asked her foster mom what her favorite food was she answered . . . "lemons."

So that expression has become very familiar to us. She bites, recoils in horror, and then digs in. That, and the fact that she loves tomatoes and just devoured her first cauliflower today with glee, are a few of the many reasons I love her so.

My son, now 3, has always loved lemons. We never really got that face, except the first time.

I was expecting to see giggles and smiles, Izzy has always adored lemons. It shocked me at first because I expected a sourpuss and got the opposite. He lovesto suck on lemons and often drinks lemon water. My brother was the same way..I will have to get a photo of Izzy enjoying a lemon.

Awww poor baby but its really adorable i just seen it and i see before babies eating lemons but that face was unique, i had a son, 2 years i would give him to see that one but not now as now a days I’m busy in my 70-432 exams of Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Implementation and Maintenance, required for MCP and I’m quite confident to pass them in first attempt as i have already pass my 70-448 exams of MS SQL Server 2008.Business Intelligence Dev & Maintenance, this will help me lots in clearing exams in first attempt as i am taking guideline from reliable sources. But put these things on other i love your site and will back again to read more. Thanks for sharing
