    Nobody wants to get poisoned, do they?

    #2 ‘My son said that he would only eat ratatouille if it was made following the original cartoon recipe.’

    Of course in the end he didn’t even touch it because… it hadn’t been cooked by a rat!

    #3 ‘It’s too cute to be eaten!’

    Well, there’s no way you can bring round a perfectionist.

    Under no circumstances should children eat spicy products!

    Children know it so well that works of art should never be damaged.

    #10 ‘I’m not going to eat it. Some mice have been doing it already!’

    There is some rational behind it. Isn’t it how the cheese holes are made?

    #11 ‘I’m not going to eat the dumplings – they have fingers’

    Strange are the things kids see on their plates…

    #12 The reason was very straightforward: ‘It looks like buttocks!’
