lol no friends, I didn’t not “accidentally” mention Hello Fresh in this video. I was talking about *cooking* specifically, which you do NOT need to do with Factor. This why I love them both! Whether you don’t feel like cooking at all or want to cook but don’t have several hours 😝🥰

I don’t think this is normal… my mom was a typical 90s mom, not health crazed, made casseroles, but she understood the principle of having a protein, starch, and vegetable with every meal. And she didn’t buy a lot of processed snacks and drinks. I think of that as much more normal than dumping some donuts on a plate for your kid :/

[@emilyramoundos7527]

There’s a happy medium- I was raised in a house no sugar, no soda, no candy etc and being told “a moment on your lips a lifetime on your hips” for as long as I can remember and ended up with a lifelong struggle with eating disorders and body issues.

[@ashenwalls3558]

Oh yeah that phrase was spouted constantly in my house growing up! Growing up with a diet so tied to morality (good food/bad food, and having to optimize everything all the time) really messed up my relationship with food.

[@MB-fk5mg]

No sugar, soda or candy is good. Just because those things exist, doesn't mean we need to have them. However, connecting it to weight gain and appearance is the problematic part. You can avoid junk in your child's diet without making it a big deal, while teaching them about good health. "Everything in moderation" is a myth and moderation has even led to addiction for many. My mother was the opposite of how you were raised. She was clueless about nutrition and would give us junk and processed foods constantly. I didn't know what many fruits and vegetables even looked like or tasted like. We are paying for it now. I had/have to work extremely hard to be a normal weight. Best wishes to you in your struggle and I'm sorry it happened that way for you.

[@krystaldaniels7940]

Wow I couldn’t imagine a childhood with no sugar!! My mom was always skinny as a toothpick. I remember her trying sooo hard to gain weight when I was little to no avail. We always had sweet tea and koolaid in the fridge and snacks in the cabinet. My mom cooked every night except Friday nights were always fast food or takeout and we’d have one “left over night” during the week. We never even thought about weight growing up. We’ve always been thin BUT I’m afraid of the effects you can’t see…clogged arteries, cholesterol…😒

[@laurac86]

I grew up no sugar, candy, soda in the house and my mom cooked a well balanced dinner every night and breakfast in the morning and only healthy snacks. That didn’t mean we didn’t ever have sweet stuff it was only for a special occasion or every once in awhile. I’m very thankful for that because I’ve always been slim and at a healthy weight

I couldn’t run I couldn’t play. I hated my childhood because I was too overweight to enjoy it.

[@ValleyDragon777]

Yes neglect is recognized as a form of abuse. I have sympathy for you as I've been through this as a kid as well. My mother always showed love towards me and has been my support but as far as diet goes she was complacent in trying to keep my diet and weight under control. In her case I think it stemmed from pure ignorance. What enrages me is when people would boast about their diet and weight loss routine, talk about going to the gym ... Yet don't ever put their foot down on their kid's diet and the child is clearly overweight and on the verge of being obese... I've heard people say, " I can't control what my kids eat." Yes. You absolutely can. And you should...

[@cosmicgumdrops2]

Growing up my dad would make my plates, I lived in a eat everything on your plate house. So he would fill mine the same as his. Because of this I never learned how to properly portion meals or balance plates. I still struggle with this. Things like this 100% effect your relationship with food.

Child abuse?! Come on.. that's reaching. You don't know her children's specific situations. I have 6 kids, 5 of which eat normal meals I prepare of have brought in. One is special needs and will not eat virtually anything. Not feeding her children is child abuse. What she chooses to feed them is ultimately parental choice and bc we dont know her specific situations calling it child abuse is ridiculous. I struggle with my weight, binge, and yoyo and I was fed a cookie cutter perfect meal 3x a day for the first 16 years of my life.

yes exactly! and for some people in some crucial circumstances this sort of thing gets so extreme it can actually become an eating disorder. called ARFID. avoidant restrictive food intake disorder. they will only eat one food group, or one color food, or one texture food, stuff like that. to the point that they miss important proteins and vitamins and have to supplement it. i know you’re speaking generally about cultural food types but was just giving the extreme example. but even when ur not missing out on nutrition i agree it’s such a sad thing to even imagine not having other culture’s foods, let alone not being able to have friends/fam experience it! exposing outer influences to kids young for parents who have the means to is such a good thing

As a kid that was fed in this way by an obese parent. I wish that someone would have told her to put some effort into feeding her children healthy foods. We were really poor, but I know that we could have eaten better than pancakes, topped with about a cup of brown sugar and margarine, and snacking on plain (non toasted) white bread covered in margarine and white sugar. Can you take a guess if my brothers and I struggle with weight? Our entire lives!!

[@SS24ist]

Yeah.... sugar messes with kids hormones and metabolism... It's also more addictive that nicotine.

[@orangeradishneo]

​@SS24ist I genuinely also think it's harder to refrain from than drug use. Don't get me wrong, sugar is not as addictive as some drugs and doesn't do as much damage - but in terms of sobriety? Everyday is a struggle for addicts, everyday they have to make the decision not to use. Sugar/food addiction? You have to eat! There are so many temptations and it's so easy to fall into lazy eating. Life gets busy, sometimes we need to take shortcuts in order to feed ourselves. Cooking is a lot of effort. Cooking from scratch is even more effort. My mom decided to make homemade Shepards pie for the two of us... it took her hours and it didn't taste as good as the store bought boxed kind, due to missing an ingredient. Plus, we had too many leftovers!

[@InterTay]

Yes I was the same, and also have weight issues. Said parent still doesn't understand why I'm so diligent in giving my kids such a variety of foods, and as least processed as possible.

[@WonderfulWorldofAwesomeness]

Why do people still use margarine? I get why people used it back in my Mom’s day - they thought that butter was bad for you. Is it cheaper? Maybe I’m a coastal elite, but when I became an adult I came to realize that butter made things taste sooooo much better, and wasn’t full of chemicals. My mom put margarine on everything so I ended up eating Doritos instead of her cooking

[@RTveg]

I struggled with weight issues. I wasn’t confident in grade school, always had body issues. I knew I needed to break the cycle with my daughter, she’s in sports and eats healthy food 💪🏼 I grew up on soda and I never gave her any as a toddler and till this day she does not drink bubbly drinks.

[@skybug1706]

Growing up my family had a ritual I think was really beneficial. We grocery shopped on average every other week. You are allowed to pick out 1 "kind" of treat from roughly 3 categories: •chips/crackers •cereal/bars/toastables •confections/candy. You didn't get the "family size", you got the regular bag/box. That was your junk (I usually got cheetos, devil dogs and a block of Monterey Jack cheese😂). You were allowed to have them whenever you wanted, as much as you wanted, any time of day, but when you ran out, you were out for up to 2 weeks. We never skipped groceries because "we still had food" so sometimes you ended up with more junk bc we were allowed to replenish even if we still had some at home; we skipped for budget reasons, So we weren't incentivized to eat everything to justify shopping - Instead we had good reason to try and stretch out how long we could have our snacks around. This made the junk food special but not craved, encouraged pouring small bowls of cereal/chips instead of eating out of the bag, and choosing/waiting for actual meals when hungry instead of eating away the snacks too soon. We also got to choose small treats for movies, weren't forever denied fast food, and were allowed enjoy anything offered at special events. We rarely went to restaurants and never got appetizers but I was allowed anything I wanted on the menu, it just had to be 1 thing - I would order an appetizer as my meal because I thought appetizers were just smaller regular meals. So yeah, we didn't have restriction or deprivation, there was rarely "you can't have that, it's not healthy", we just had controlled portions that I've since learned others consider really small. But it really worked. This left MOST of our consumption to the regular daily meals - which weren't always the healthiest but for the time, it did reflect the food pyramid and we always tried to have greens and proteins on every plate. We also always bought a little fresh fruit. I remember on vacation we'd get chewy chocolate chip cookies and all year I'd refrain from eating them except at the beach so they would always be a beach treat. I feel lucky because I think I was (accidentally) raised right with portion control. To this day I still prefer to have "a little at a time".

[@christiana5757]

We had a similar-but-different upbringing. We didn't have restrictions but my mom was a nurse and made us homecooked, mostly-healthy food 80% of the time for dinner. A meat, a starch and always 3 steamed veggies. Every night. We were allowed fast food as a treat, we were allowed some snack foods that weren't healthy but usually just the plain granola bars. We ate all our Halloween candy :D BUT THE PORTIONS. We were chubby kids because we just ate and ate and had seconds and thirds if it was really good. So while my taste buds are excellent and I was never sick as a kid (nor my brother), we still both struggle with our weight because we grew up eating adult-sized portions as kids. It's such an untalked-about aspect of learning how to have a healthy relationship with food.

[@vickicollins4946]

I was raised the opposite of this. Fresh cooked meals every night, no junk food, very rarely given chocolate/fizzy drinks. This was the 90s when fat and sugar were devil foods. Because it was all 'forbidden', it's all I eat as an adult. Nutrition should be taught in schools and nothing should be labelled 'bad'. It creates unhealthy relationships with food, no matter which side you were raised.

[@moononthewindynight27]

I was raised like that too, but mostly because my parents were too poor to afford anything other than necessity 😅 I get that, I had that problem when I first started being more independent, but I got over it quickly when I saw that my parents weren't lying when they said its bad food lol I felt so greasy and heavy and it was really a wakeup call. I'm actually glad I got to eat like that when I was a kid.

[@pcbassoon3892]

[@KristenLikesNerds]

Came here to say the exact same thing! Demonizing certain foods is a toxic way of thinking and can lead to issues with restriction and binge. There is not a single food on this earth that if you eat it in a concious, moderate fashion that will make you immediately gain fat. Treat a treat as a treat. Not as a standard.

I would never forgive myself if my kids grew up to deal with the same health issues I have now and I had never done anything to give them a healthy foundation and teach them how to eat in a healthy, balanced way. The goal should be to give our kids a better life than we grew up with, and health is part of that.

Right, my mom was that parent. I grew up eating things like Totinos party pizzas, ramen noodles, sugary cereals, snack cakes, fried chicken and fast food pretty much every day of the week. I was CONSTANTLY sick. I had a fast metabolism so that’s the only reason I never gained weight but by the time I hit my teens I had IBS and other medical issues brought on by awful diet. I missed so much school growing up and my mom truly didn’t understand why. It got so bad to a point where I was waking up and vomiting about once a week with stomach pains so bad I could hardly walk. One of my favorite things about being an adult is that I’m finally able to get all the fresh foods I would always ask my mom for growing up, but she refused to get it for me because according to her it was a waste of money because I was “the only one who would eat that crap” and because they considered fruits and veggies to be rabbit food. Sadly my siblings think this way now as well and are battling with their weight and health issues because of it. My sister will over dramatically gag and dry heave if I serve salad or desserts with real fruit when she comes over.

Serving sausage in boiling water is what my traditional German Austrian mom did.

They had sausage casings that the water didn't penetrate. So far this is the most normal thing she's doing

[@justinm2697]

Are you thinking about sausages or frankfurts. I'm part German and would never boil a sausage at least not what we call a sausage here in Australia. They would be fried, BBQ's/grilled, perhaps even squeeze the meat out of the casing and make little meatballs.

​@Kattydid19 "intentional" is the key word, though. Assuming this is how she was raised (and likely was, probably in a small, poor town where most people are overweight), I don't think she is intentionally harming her children. And as Jamie said, it appears that she is taking advice from some of the kinder, more helpful comments and implementing protein via eggs, etc. Of course you could say she could just google "what should I feed my 4 year old?" But it's quite possible that these kids are really picky eaters having grown up eating so much sugar. I understand veggies and lean protein are a must, but if a grape or blueberry doesn't taste sweet to your child (or likely, even to mom), making the switch to grilled chicken and spinach won't happen overnight.

Guys, unfortunately this is absolutely a thing. I'm 31 years old and now that I have children of my own I've worked hard to learn about healthy eating and they rarely have unhealthy foods. But when I was young I was raised on processed everything, cue to being an adult pre children and all I ate was "food" from a gas station or fast food place. It got so bad at one point that I was eating a cosmic brownie or some sort of candy and drinking just energy drinks everyday. I weighed maybe 110. Which isn't a healthy weight for me. And I can 100% honestly tell you that from the time I was maybe 17 to 25 yrs old, if I went to a friend's and had home cooked food or decided to rarely switch things up and get a salad or fruit, or meat that wasn't from a fast food place, it absolutely made me feel like garbage. I would get really painful gas pains and had bathroom issues, to say it politely. Not often but a few times I had even thrown up bc my stomach was so upset. It finally got to the point where I just stopped eating healthy ever bc it just wasn't worth it. When I finally got it together when I became pregnant, I had to start out with a very bland, simple, but not heavily processed diet. It took maybe a month to be able to eat like a normal person without any negative effects. Sorry for the novel. Just had to share my experience so that people can know how badly things can get.

[@FrenkTheJoy]

The only criticism I have for that is depending on where they live, their schedules, and financial situation, getting fresh fruit can be obnoxious as hell. Like you buy a carton of strawberries for the same price as donuts and they go bad like within a day whereas the donuts are good for at least a little longer.

[@katelynbrown98]

​going bad within a day is a stretch. Prepackaged donuts only last ab a week and a half before tasting stale. And given America's capitalism, we can get fruit year round. Thankfully even Dollar General has fresh or frozen fruit now.

Depending on where they live yes… I just went to a discount grocery store and bought a bag of apples for $5, a bag of tangerines for $3.99 and a whole pineapple for $2…. those same powder donuts were $6 and I left them there 😂

[@LunarEleven]

That's really exaggerating. Fruit and veggies can't just be washed and tossed on a plate for a small child. They need to be peeled/cored/seeded and/or cut as well (depending on the fruit) and even having fresh fruit on hand isn't as easy. I'm not saying the effort isn't worthwhile, I luckily was not fed donuts nor was my child. But you're not really being realistic. Healthier options are generally going to take more time than Hostess options and be less accessible if you can't get to the store more than weekly. (For instance, I live in the boonies, nobody will deliver groceries out here, the closest Walmart is 35+ min away, so I would need frozen or shelf-stable options requiring preparations if I had a bunch of little kids to raise.)

[@LunarEleven]

​@@FrenkTheJoyI totally agree with what you're saying but if your strawberries go bad in a day I would highly suggest refrigerating them cuz they shouldn't!

At her kids expense.

[@skeelatheskink8724]

I find it interesting there are so many comments insinuating she’s playing 4D Chess but it’s clear her and her family are nutritionally starved so even if it was for the views, it’s still extremely unhealthy.

[@megand12345]

She's really despicable

[@evydarling]

That was my thought. It's all for views. She doesn't give a F about the negativity because those who hate-watch are making her money. She films then (hopefully) she makes the children a nutritious meal.

[@dialishious93]

Shes not laughing to the bank. Shes posted about regularly going to food banks ect. So i dont think shes getti g paid much for views.

[@earthstar7534]

I mean, there is a living breathing child actively being given an addiction and eating disorder that won't just affect their health, it will color their entire life, every meal, every drink, how they see themselves, how they are treated and could potentially limit their options in life just from physical limitations. We would judge a mother starving her children and being hyper restrictive. I don't understand the concept of the opposite extreme being seen as "she's just doing her best with what she has." She's literally not. I've been low income, junk food is crazy expensive. It's just as easy to make some toast and an egg or oatmeal as it is to cut up doughnuts. We need to bring stigma back into our culture. We've destigmatized society to the point abuse is being excused and ignored. We can't normalize nutritional abuse in children. It ruins lives.

[@NickaLah]

I watched someone else cover this topic and they actually showed several moms feeding their kids junk food who didn't get nasty comments. The difference is one was in a nice car and fairly thin while feeding her kids a dozen Krispy Kremes, the other spent hours making sugary foods in her aesthetically pleasing kitchen in her multimillionaire home. She was also a thin mom and there was not one kid in sight as she prepared this unhealthy meal for hours on end. She obviously has the luxury of handing her kids off to someone else to do what she likes, yet she only received praise for being a beautiful mom in a beautifully expensive kitchen even when feeding her kids junk. I guess she gets points for making the junk herself so it's less processed? But it still was total junk food.

[@RavenC1357]

Maybe if it's once in a while vs every meal?

[@starhwas]

Same! It’s an interesting contrast!

[@TheBaumcm]

I think one difference could be the mom’s attitude towards it. There is also a difference between a one off versus everyday. That’s a lot of calories from fat and sugar with very little protein (needed for bone and muscle growth), and I can’t imagine feeding a child a fruit pouch and those powdered sugar donuts all together. That is about 400 calories right there and again, there is very little protein.

My kid is autistic and as a baby would eat fruit puree, but when we switched to solids he refused fruit and veggies. Now at 4 he will only eat a handful of things, mostly brown and tan colored. He used toneat scrambled eggs but gagged on them once and refused them every time after that still does. It sucks trying to navigate feeding kids, esp kids with special needs. He enjoys 1 good healthy meal with rice and veggies and chicken, but it can't be too chickeny 😂. He won't even eat doughnuts!! I hope it gets better eventually!

[@BrookeCrochetsForU]

My child is also autistic and this is exactly what happened with him too. As soon as we switched over to solids he refused. It's a texture thing with him. I've been able to sneak some in and also he is a lot more tolerant than he was a few years ago. Do not feel guilty. We are just doing the best we can. 💓

[@sasamafrass]

My child has ADHD and also has issues eating a broad range of foods. I was referred to a dietitian but I know what to feed my child they just won't eat it. I hope it's not like this forever 🤞🤞🤞🤞

[@jontell726]

My kid is the same. He is actually more adventurous since his younger brother is so adamant about not trying things. It's gotten better and better. Don't worry, you're not screwing up.

When I grew up in the 80's and 90's, breakfast for myself and most other kids I knew were sugary cereals, pop tarts, toaster strudels, etc. it wasn't healthy, but at the time it was the norm

[@seltzermint5]

definitely agree, breakfast was definitely any of those through my whole childhood and teens. In jr high and high school most kids (skinny or fat) ate literal snack cakes instead of the hot meals. Washed down with Pepsi or Sunny D.

[@jillbravo5252]

@@seltzermint5 70’s/80’s, and same- sugary cereal or pop tarts. Both my parents worked, so my brother and I were total latchkey kids. I will say, though, we had a family home-cooked dinner every night, and weekends were bagels and lox for breakfast. I consider myself lucky- my parents did the best they could ❤️

[@camilove318]

[@seltzermint5]

@@camilove318 47 here, I do eat some of it too and lots of healthier food. But gotta say, I saw another comment about kids being sick all the time eating this food and that was never me or my friends in the 80s-90s. I'm never sick now either. So IDK. Maybe it's immunity building to eat Fruity Pebbles and chicken nuggets.

1. That wasn't normal for all kids. 2. Good then wasn't ultra processed. Now we are in peak food engineering, where most food isn't.. well.. food anymore... And most adults are woefully uneducated in nutrition

Great video, Jaime! I tend to concur with you regarding all of the points you touched on. Thank you for being so entertaining, and for delivering this type of content so candidly and humourously, without putting anyone down (unlike many creators that do reaction videos). I appreciate you! I always get excited when I see that you've uploaded. Thanks again❤

[@CelticBotansDigitalArt]

While I definitely agree giving donuts to a 1yo is really bad, I also think ppl just want to yap and be mean AF tbh. This situation makes me think of Bela Gil a few years ago - Bela Gil is a cooking show host / chef who focuses on healthy / vegan stuff. She became a meme years ago EXACTLY for being "too overboard healthy" and mostly, for "not letting her kid eat sugar or drink soda and have a 'real childhood' like the rest of us" bc we were all raised on sugary, ultraprocessed snacks and sodas and "we are all fine". They criticized her for giving sweet potato to her kid instead of cola and cheetos and cookies and stuff like that. I get we can have a balance between these two ends of the spectrum but I also think ppl just want to shit mean opinions online, and not them worrying about parenting styles

[@sideshowmob]

And we don't know if that's all she feeds her children.

[@CelticBotansDigitalArt]

@@sideshowmobalso a good point, we dont know these people closely

[@TheBaumcm]

3 of those donuts are 300-400 calories with little actual nutritional content. For a 1 year old that is overfeeding, just based on the calories.

[@musicallinda21]

Vocals at the end on point! You sing really pretty! Also this mom is giving cooking with Kya a run for her money😂

[@jessicam6881]

I've seen someone review her videos before. I'm still thinking at least some of these are just to get a reaction because negative interaction on a video is better than no interaction. It reminds me of the person that said if they have a question they post it on reddit, then sign into a different account & answer it with a wrong answer because people are more likely to correct the wrong answer than just answer the question to begin with.

[@heathernks8]

Wow, that's low-key genius

[@EricaMeeee]

[@beezkpr]

But do we ever see the children actually eating the food? Maybe it's all faked just to get reactions???

[@raeroa7982]

Agreed but I said this above - if it was my sister or friend I think I'd wonder if she was ok? I'd wonder why she wants to make countless videos to bring hate on herself and pretending to feed her babies unhealthy food for tons of meals. Just makes me feel either way somethin' aint right over there.

[@nineteenfortyeight]

She's real. She has longer videos, etc , and yes the kids eat it and yes, she defends this vocally. And yes, she's enjoying all the hate views. The monetization funds her, her husband, and her husband's girlfriend. Not kidding. None of them work.

[@Andy-xx3tt]

Yup. It’s a really toxic mindset to have that “mamas know best” so nobody can say anything. If that was the case, things like CPS wouldn’t exist. She’s setting her kid up for a lifetime of health issues if this is the garbage her kid is eating regularly at such a young age. The lady doesn’t even take the time to sit the baby down at the table to feed her. She just sets her plate on the floor like she’s feeding a dog and giving her kid finger foods so she won’t need help eating. She should have her kids taken away, tbh. If you can’t be bothered to feed your kids properly or even so much as sit with them, you shouldn’t have kids.

[@emilyd.6371]

@@holleyb1856 yeah... Idk who that is

[@gggthsb]

true but if change is what people want, a hot tip, insulting others does not do the trick. It just makes them retaliate and not change. So giving her tips on how to do it better in a nice way goes a longer way than telling her that her children should be taken away because of the food she serves (some comments actually suggest that). The tone makes the music.
