While having most all of the family in for 4th of July I had taken my granddaughter grocering with me to get some things she liked to eat. She picked her out a choc. bar of course, just like mamaw, and a box of Apple Jacks and some pop.
So she wanted some apple jacks for breakfast, as I was busy trying to cook for a family homecoming we were having and did not fix any breakfast that morning.
I noticed she did not eat all of them and really never thought much about it. So she wanted some more the next day for a snack and she said to me how they did not taste right.
I knew that we had just opened up a new box and there was nothing wrong with them. She went home and I sent the rest of the box home with her to eat.
Her mom asked her if she wanted some for breakfast and she said no they do not taste right. She ask her why do they not taste right. They just don't she said. She is so funny can come up with the funnist stuff to say. So she kept on asking her and she replyed: They did not come from Walmart, mamaw got them at Kroger's and they do not taste right. Well they were the name brand and not the store brand so we knew there was nothing different about them. But because they did not come from Walmart they were not the right kind she liked.
Now that is just like a child. You think that they don't pay much attention but they sure do. She thought that you had to buy them at Walmart always because she got to put them in the buggy.
We finely told her it does not matter what store you get your cearl at it is all the same. I wonder what she will come up with next.
