Uh Oh, Spaghettios!

To start off, I want to say we have never ever made Spaghettios in this house before. I do not like them and never have. To be honest, I think they smell like barf. I know, I know, that's not nice, but we're being honest here.

There's been lots of sickness here lately and everything doesn't seem to be getting done like I'd like. As a result, last night I decided we were having a very quick dinner. I pull out Spaghettios for the kids which I got free at one of the grocery stores. They have never had this as far as I know. Then I pull out soup in a can for me. Amos was not eating because he has a stomach bug. I also threw in some garlic toast in the oven.

When it's all ready the children ask me what it is. I say it's Spaghettios. John tries it and says, "I don't like the sauce." I give him some of my soup which to be honest is okay. I much prefer my homemade soups. Gracie says she likes it, but is picking at it which is not a sign that she likes it. I finally ask her, "Do you like it, Gracie?" She answers no.

This is not turning into such a quick easy dinner. John is finished with his soup and garlic bread by now and says he wants an apple. Gracie says she wants blueberries and an apple. I serve them up.

Amos comes into the kitchen and I tell him that neither one of the kids liked the Spaghettios. He then says, "I never liked them either." This put me to thinking. Are Spaghettios just disgusting and no one like them? Is this just hereditary that my kiddos don't like them? What do you think?
