Do you get those LCM bars in the US? (they are kind of similar to White Christmas without the cherries)
Well DH got a box of them and we had both forgotten about them for a couple of weeks and I picked up the box the other day to find it empty bar one. I thought DH must have eaten them all and shrugged it off - that was until I cleaned out DD's room and found that DD and DS had HIDDEN the LCM's in her bedroom and had been eating them in secret in her bedroom (I also found empty wrappers in her bed LOL).
can you believe that? My kids had an LCM stash in DD's bedroom!
They got in trouble for stealing - we had seriously wondered why they had been so hyperactive for a few weeks (I was against the purchase of the LCM's because they are nothing but sugar laden rubbish IMO).
Anyway - since we found the kids love them so much - we have begun to use them as "currency" with the kids. My my... how compliant they are when the possiblity of an LCM comes up LOL - of course not every day since they are garbage food!
How sneaky was that? I mean we never directly said they weren't allowed the LCM's they just squirrled them away LOL
