I'm not shocked by the results. Two of my kids are very picky, so I'm happy when they eat anything! If I had my way they would be allowed to eat them like 3 times a week :)

My kids eat more snacks than they do on there regular meals. Which I could get them to eat more healthy snacks than the junk food.

My child is a major snacker too, but since she's pretty much a grazer when she does have a meal I've had to adjust her snacks to be healthier.

Healthy snacks come first and then they can eat something else.

My kids have always been picky. I only allow snacks in the afternoon, between lunch and dinner.

Guilty! But I'm doing much better now a days. I buy way more fruits and veggies and less packaged snacks. I still splurge on some things to balance it out.. Ice Cream is a staple in my house along with fresh fruits.

I have ten kids ranging from 8 to 28. Eight still live at home. If you don't buy unhealthy snacks then they won't eat unhealthy snacks. I don't buy it and can't afford to buy it so they don't have it!

My kids are picky and I often feel guilty about the food that they snack on.

my kid does eat pre-packaged snacks but all the other stuff isn't true for me. I snack on fruits and veggies myself so my kid has no problem snacking on them too.
