A mother has issued a warning after seeing her son eat Babybel cheese
A mother urgently alerted other parents after realizing her child was eating Babybel cheese with the wax wrapper still on it.
The woman couldn’t understand why her ten-year-old son disliked the taste of the popular cheese so much until the day she decided to watch him eat it.
My son really hates this. And today I found out why, because he didn’t remove the red wax,” she captioned a photo of the cheese snack.
Outraged mothers slammed the mother, saying they had heard “horror stories” of parents letting their children eat the treats unsupervised.
“It’s made with paraffin, which is used in candles. It can cause intestinal problems if eaten,” said one woman.
“Have you never supervised your child’s eating? And I don’t mean beady-eyed, wouldn’t you occasionally glance at your child when he’s eating?’ said a mother.

Others stood up for the ten-year-old, claiming they had eaten the cheese the same way.
“I’m afraid I did the same thing and I’m 39,” said one woman.
She added that she complained that the cheese was too hard to eat before her sister explained that the red coating was wax.
“Why don’t they write WAX in big letters on the package,” she laughed
And some people like to eat the wax.
“My three-year-old only eats them with the red on them. She smokes when you take it off. Raising tomorrow’s psychopaths today,” said one mother.
“Better than my kid, liked the wax, didn’t like the cheese,” a third added.
She discovered that he ate the hard wax instead of peeling it off
The mother’s cautionary tale led others to reveal their own funny tale of misused products.
“This reminds me of my father not realizing he had to dissolve Berocca tablets,” one woman wrote.
“My son came in and complained that he couldn’t get the soap to work. He used it dry,’ one mother laughed.
