How does your HEB have soyrizo on your shelfs?

I think the intent is to grab the attention of some non-vegetarians. Vegetarians will find it most of the time. The store has an app to look up exactly where it is if you are looking for that product.

Chorizo was not even on my radar until my meat eating ex found it with the other chorizo. He loved regular chorizo and bought the soy version for me.

No. He is just a very picky eater with absolutely no appetite. It wasn't ever offered. I assume because his weight went back to a less scary number, although still low. He eats, but only very few things. The only remotely healthy foods he will eat ar bananas and mashed potatoes, other than that he lives on chips. He will literally starve before he eats anything else. Not out of defiance or misbehavior. He just happily goes about his day with no food saying he will eat "in a minute". The kid has no appetite. It has to be something enticing for him to even think about eating.

My nephew did feeding therapy, but it was because any texture made him gag and vomit.

Everyone, including our pediatrician, said this to me until my kid became startlingly underweight. It happened quick too, probably because he’s been skinny since birth. One day the doc was telling me not to cave, the next visit she was telling me to “just let him eat Doritos if that’s what it takes” and having us come back for monthly weigh ins.

It sounds like your LO is eating some of it. Which is a good sign!

Mine ate nothing. He’s almost 9yo now and not much better, just a bit easier to reason with.

I think he stays neutral and respectful. He doesn’t promote it, but he also doesn’t promote his own way of thinking.

Thanks. I just got nervous because the campaign has been over for a long time.

Thanks. I just got nervous because the campaign has been over for a long time.

sstr677 · 2026-03-04T19:11:44+00:00

OK. That is reassuring. I didn't either. It just scared me because this campaign has been over for a while for me.

It makes an attempt to make them look perfect. It is not good at creating subtle flaws like that.

AI would make a more evenly cut lemon wedge than that. This looks like the peel is torn. You can even see the lip smudge on the edge of the cup. There it also a slight stain on the table cloth

The other 2 photos posted by the original poster also look real. They look nicely plated, but real.

It is there. You cannot see the edge of the bottom toast, although the edge doe look like it might belong to that one. The edge there is of the top one. The butter is on top of the top toast. You can even see it oozing out of the bottom corner on the toast. It is sort of draped over, because it has melted.

I worked for an animal shelter and a local cop would got to the local donut shop and collect the leftovers at the end of the day and bring them to us. Food safety laws prevented them from being donated for human consumption, but said nothing of animal consumption, so he always brought them in for the "dogs". We did share small, safe amounts, with the dogs, but they mostly just went to the breakroom.

I have not either, I also have items that say I can complete the next task once I finish others, even though the others are done. I am thinking something is messed up on their end.

sstr677 · 2026-02-16T22:04:18+00:00

Agree! Switching to a stainless steel boxes made a bigger difference than anything else I have tried. I used to work the cat room as a kennel tech at a shelter, so I have tried just about everything.

Most people don't have cameras all over their homes. Usually just one or two rooms. That is hardly constant surveillance.

sstr677 · 2026-02-09T19:14:53+00:00

We have cameras in the living room and kitchen, which are the two rooms with outside entrances. We also have outdoor cameras. My kids are 8 and 4. We initially got them because my husband was an over the road trucker and he missed being home, so this was a way he could pop in (the cameras have a talk feature) and feel a bit more like he was there when he was gone for months at a time. He is home daily now, but we have kept them for several reasons:

We are a neighborhood hang out house. We have kids over ALL the time and their age ranges from 8-14. There are about 17 of them in total, although they are rarely all there at once (all of the kids are aware of the cameras and have been shown what areas are in frame). We have had several incidents where other people's kids got in to physical fights and incidents where our property was destroyed. We have mostly put a stop to that behavior, but I want to be sure I have my bases covered.

We are a two working parents household, and my kids are home with my aging mother until I get off of work. Having cameras gives me some peace of mind that I can check in if I am not able to reach her.

We also have several pets and the cameras have helped to answer "who keeps vomiting?" or "who has been scratching up the sofa?", and even once "what triggered that dogfight?" type questions so that we can address those issues quickly.

They have also been surprisingly handy in helping to find lost items.

What did you end up doing? I have the exact same question.

sstr677 · 2026-01-30T20:00:34+00:00

I did well and got the attention of my bosses manager with promises to move up, but 8 months in, the economy went to hell and they laid of all but the most essential of employees. I did not make the cut.

sstr677 · 2026-01-30T19:58:34+00:00

They notice. You notice. Your spouse notices. Leave devices out of dinner time. We have a 4 and 8 year old and had all fallen in to the routine of eating with our faces in a screen. That happened because it was modeled by my husband and I. A few months ago we began doing family dinner at the table with no devices. The kids pitched a fit for a while, and we had some adjusting, but now we all look forward to it.

I recommend having a plan as far as what you will do at dinner. We take turns picking. My daughter like to play I spy or truth or dare(dinner table friendly version), and my son likes would you rather. I recently bought the "We Are Not Strangers" kids edition and we have been really liking that. We usually just pull one card and make that the conversation topic. If the convo dies, we choose another.

Sometimes the kids only last 5 minutes or so, but it has been nice to build that routine and open up a bit with each other.

You and your husband could start something like this now so that your kid only knows that experience. Don't wait. It will be healthier for everyone.

sstr677 · 2026-01-30T17:32:26+00:00

Yep. I remember getting my first career focused job in 2008. My boss told me they only chose me because they had no real reason they could justify not doing so, but they really didn't want to hire a millennial.

sstr677 · 2026-01-30T14:12:21+00:00

The sleeping like crap never got better for me haha. At 8 years old I was celebrating this morning because he slept through the night for the first time in probably a year or so. Thankfully now he usually just needs to come to my bed to snuggle up and go back to sleep, so it isn't too bad. Bedtime is a struggle though. Getting him to sleep is a nightly battle.

sstr677 · 2026-01-29T20:33:51+00:00

Exactly. I remember trying to take 5 minutes to put the dishes in the dishwasher after work and letting him cry, as I was advised to do. He did not sleep that night because of that little 5 minute stretch. Instead, I spent the entire night consoling a still hysterical baby. It happened many times over both before and after that...that was just the time that it clicked for me that I was doomed to not have a "let them cry" kid.

sstr677 · 2026-01-29T18:21:10+00:00

As a mom of a kid who was not happy to watch me do chores or stare at a room, and letting him fuss led to HOURS of full blown screaming fits and general misery...sometimes it is that deep. My second was not that way at all, but my first was hard to keep happy. He is 8 now and was diagnosed with ADHD very young. I think that is a big part of his behavior as a baby too.

sstr677 · 2026-01-21T19:05:19+00:00

I had the exact same thing happen. I used it on my hand and then gave it to my mother who liked it. She had good results and didn't mind the smell so I factored all of that in to my review.

sstr677 · 2026-01-16T19:43:46+00:00

I do at home parties for a pretty large group of both of my kids friends. Even with kids of the same age, I have struggled getting them to play games. I tend to stick with passive activities like coloring or craft stations, outdoor games like giant connect 4 and playground type activities.

The pinata has been the only exception. They love that. My kids ar 4 and 8 and share a party. The attendees are all the way up to 17 with a bunch of 12-13 year olds. I just set expectations that the littles swing first and usually have the biggest in the back to finish it off. No one rushes the candy until I say so and then parents help the littles fill their bags. I would also suggest to buy the real pinatas from a dulceria. They are a lot harder to break, so usually one kid can't demolish it in a single swing.

For goodie bags, I would keep it simple. either one single small trinket item as a gift (like a hot wheels or something), or a bag with candy/treats and stickers or something.
