Buy One, Get One Free From Subway This Week

Posted on by

Subway is doing something a little bit different this week. This offer will especially appeal to those who are “early birds”, or those who work third shift, and get off of work in the wee hours of the morning. This week, when you buy one six inch sandwich from Subway, you get another six inch sandwich for free. This deal is only good during a few hours, each day. Sometime recently, I noticed that Subway had started making breakfast sandwiches. I have yet to try one, though. I do happen to like most breakfast foods, but I am rarely awake … Continue reading →

Forcing Americans to be Healthy

One of the things I enjoy about being an adult is the ability to make my own decisions. I also enjoy as a parent being able to make decisions about my own children. To take it a step further, I also enjoy the freedom of this country and how we are able to make our own decisions in a number of areas. Yet San Francisco has recently made the news because an ordinance has been passed which bans toys from Happy Meals that consist of high fat and high sugar foods. Now don’t get me wrong. I understand the reasoning … Continue reading →

Water Gets a Face Lift with Hint

I love to drink water. Nothing is more refreshing than a cold glass of water. However, my kids are not huge water fans. I allow juice and milk at meal times and water throughout the day. Many times I don’t even buy juice due to the amount of sugar it contains. Whole fruit is far better for a child than a glass of juice. Yet, my kids are always jazzing up their water either with a squeeze of lemon or lime. I understand how boring water can become. However, the options out there normally contain too many calories or sugar. … Continue reading →

San Francisco Puts Ban on McDonald’s Happy Meal Toys?

Under a veto proof vote of 8 to 3, San Francisco bans fast food restaurants from putting toys in children’s meals. The law comes in effect December 1, 2011. The ban only extends to children’s meals that have over 600 calories and do not contain fruits and vegetables. So, if you purchase a health conscience children’s meal than a toy will be allowed. Before you sweep this under the rug as a one city fluke, be aware that many want to see this go nationwide. “McDonald’s use of toys undercuts parental authority and exploits young children’s developmental immaturity — all … Continue reading →
