Perish the thought of bland kiddies’ menus and dumbed-down food with silly smiley fruit
I’m generally not in favour of separate food for children. Once humans have teeth, and even a bit before that, there’s no reason they shouldn’t be eating the same thing as grown-ups. While the ripest Gorgonzola you’ve ever bought or a bitter endive salad might be a cruelty to foist upon your toddler, in general it’s daft to dumb-down children’s meals.
The home front is really the place to combat this nonsense. There is, after all, no particular cuisine or flavour-set that is intrinsically child-friendly, unless you make it so, so why not offer “grown-up” food?
