Kid Approved Sandwiches, Finally

 

I occasionally eat sandwiches with meat slices in it, yet not as often as my kids. They eat sandwiches most days of the week, especially weekdays {school lunches and all}.

As well, they have a preference for meat, cheese slice, lettuce and mayo. Simple, right? So, when shopping I grab packaged meat that’s on sale or whatever catches my eye. I never really gave it much thought. They ate it … most times.

Which is fine and dandy.

That is until I had the opportunity to try Maple Leaf Deli-fresh packaged sliced meat. I started making sandwiches for the girls one day …

… when my daughter walks into the kitchen.

“OH, YESSS!”

me: “…Huh?”

“You FINALLY got different lunch meat. Oh turkey, I’ll have that kind”

“sure… but what do you mean about the meat? You don’t like the kind I’ve bought before?”

{laughing at me or the question}, “NO, Gross”

“you know, you’ve only been in school for 4 years now. Couldn’t you have told me this before?”

“I guess so … but, can you buy this from now on, Mom?” {walking away, muching on a stolen piece of Deli-fresh}

KIDS!!!!

You win some, you lose some. And sometimes you run around and around in circles.

But, I kinda have to agree with her on this one. I had a sandwich with the girls that day {Sophia and Isabelle chose Maple Leaf Oven Roasted Turkey and Katie and I had Maple Leaf Hickory Smoked Black Forest Ham, yet there’s also Chicken Breast and Sirloin Roast Beef}, and it was really good.

You know how sandwiches are always better when someone else makes it? Ya, it was that kind of good. For once, my kids agreed.

Plus, one package goes a really long way, so I think I was getting ripped off by buying the ‘on sale’ packaged meat that apparently no-one in my house liked … ya, going in circles I tell ya.

    Lunchmeat? Who still eats this stuff? Never for me, and certainly not for my kids. Keep your preservatives and MSG to yourself MapleLeaf.
