Outsmarted...
Cole loves Popsicles, however my son is very picky about the kind of Popsicles he will eat. He has been known to turn down a popsicle at school, which during the summer is common for birthday days instead of cake/cupcakes; if he isn't a fan of whatever the birthday kid's mom brought he won't eat it.
Anyway, I have tried all kinds of popsicles; most are full of junk and though I have no problem with the occasional highly processed-filled one, I do try to keep his sweet treats on the natural/organic side, full of REAL fruit. He prefers these anyway it seems as it is the neon colored ones that look "fake" that he typically refuses.
Cole also still eats like a bird and isn't a big fan of proteins. So I recently bought yogurt fruit popsicles in hopes of wooing him and getting more than just carbs into his system. He will eat ice cream/frozen yogurt but he flatly took one look at the popsicle which was roughly similar in color and shape to his favorite ones and threw me a look as if to say "what are you kidding, I know what you are up to...not a chance"! I attempted to coerce him a bit more and he retorted with "mommy, we have my favorite popsicles, we just got them yesterday, remember, did you forget?"
