What's Your Favorite Childhood Junk Food Memory?
Food writer Bee Wilson believes that it's easier to connect over junk food than home cooked food from our childhoods. I though this was an interesting idea from her book First Bite. What do you think?

DietID_TeamDietitians 9yr Favorite memory by far was sneaking to dunkin' donuts to get a donut with leftover allowance money. I did this way more often than I'd like to admit. -
Brianne 9yr I thought taco bell was totally appropriate to eat, so my friends and I would go after a movie, or before a movie, or sometimes before and after a movie all the time. I associate it now with a time in life that was totally care-free, that will probably never come back again. -
darkchocolatepeanutbutter 9yr @Rachna @Brianne Sounds so fun! My mom and I used to go to McDonald's during the summer, get Oreo McFlurries and eat them outside. I haven't had one in awhile but I might have to relive a memory ;) -
lauren 9yr YES @darkchocolatepeanutbutter those McFlurries are (still) bomb! And the McD fries... -
etsummer 9yr When I was young my friend and I would sneak off from church service and into the kitchen to steal the donuts meant for afterwards haha. Always remember that. -
DietID_TeamDietitians 9yr @etsummer lol amazing. donut theft seems like a right of passage for kids =)

DietID_TeamDietitians I'm glad the point is made about how your body absorbs nutrients, like vitamin D. Just drinking water with extra vitamins doesn't help you as much ingesting it with a full meal.
