We had another guest in our classroom today, and he gave a rather intense lesson about the evils of any food that is not organic, whole wheat, and raw. The elephant in the room was the fact that I take my kids to McDonald’s and Burger King as a reward, despite the fact that those establishments meet none of the above criteria. In fact, I’m taking Seri and Porsche there on Wednesday. Seri, who doesn’t really have a filter between her brain and her mouth, shouted out, “But Ms. Rubin is taking us to McDonald’s on Wedneday!” Porsche, who is a bit more savvy in the ways of the world, quickly gave Seri a shove and corrected her before the presenter could respond, “No she’s not, she’s taking us to a salad buffet.” She then shot me a look like, “don’t worry Ms. Rubin, I got you covered.”
Yes, because I’m sure low-income kids in the Bronx can just waltz over to Whole Foods

Everything in moderation. No worries. I hope that guy chokes on his rhetoric.
