‘This is lunch for a one and three year old today. Sharp Cheddar, crackers and seaweed,” the woman named Rachel wrote.

Is that too little food for a one and three year old?

And while many were quick to praise the mom, writing things like “she looks great” and “this is exactly what my three-year-old would eat,” others couldn’t resist attacking the mom’s efforts.

That is an error. Is this enough for them?’ a woman posted.

Another added: “My kids would devour this and then order something else.”

A third wrote: ‘Is this lunch? Or a snack? This would not fill any of my children at this age. But at least it’s healthy.’

Others said they thought it was a great lunch and that their children are also obsessed with ‘finicky’ foods like cheese, crackers and seaweed.

‘Our children are the same. My son is obsessed with seaweed. He could eat a 12 pack if you don’t watch him. Same with whole apples,” wrote one mother.

Earlier, dietitian Jaime Rose Chambers revealed exactly what the ideal lunch box for school-age kids looks like and the foods you should and shouldn’t include as a parent.

When it comes to lunch for his two children, Jaime prefers a ‘picky’ approach, including a number of different foods separated into different parts of a container.

‘Picky lunches’ are ideal for little picky eaters, Jaime explained, as it is typical at this age for children to want to ‘see’ the different elements of their food individually.

For elementary and kindergarten children, Jaime recommends trying to make lunch food ‘familiar’.

But it adds ‘minor tweaks’ that help broaden your palette and provides a wide range of nutrients.

“Always try to give fruits and vegetables and other foods that don’t go well together in a lunch box at other meal times,” she said.
