That Cheese Smell

Salem ate an entire hamburger yesterday. (Applause!) This was only after she removed the cheese, which in my mind is the best part of enjoying grilled ground beef in the shape of a patty atop a bun. Also- she wouldn't touch her burger until I started calling it a Krabby Patty.

The funny part: When she removed the cheese (mind you, it was American cheese, not some fancy cheese that I'd like, but AMERICAN cheese. ALL kids like American cheese, sheesh!) she smelled it, turned to me and said,
"I don't like this cheese, it has that smell. Like that smell from the blower in the basement. Ew!"

1. Whether we admit it or not, everyone secretly likes American cheese. I know it's fake, you have to peel it from plastic, and you're embarrassed to be seen at the store tossing it in your cart. But it's soooo good! It melts perfectly.
2. If you insist on holding your ground thinking it's gross, at least admit this, It doesn't smell like a basement.
3. What blower in the basement? The HVAC? Again, I have never in my life heard anyone describe American cheese as smelling like an HVAC.
4. I asked her if she liked any cheese. She said, "Yes, I only like the tiny square cheese from the Lunchables.
5. My kid is weird.

Aiden hates cheese. I can on occasion get him to eat a mozzarella or a meunster. The meunster because I call it monster cheese and the only way to kill it is to eat it. But for the most part, no. And NEVER on a burger. I think its weird too. As a kid I only ate things with cheese.

Talk to me...I love it when strange people give me advice on parenting.
