Re: - mcd's in hospitals

[Guest guest]

- our Children's hospital has a McD's inside, too- so hard when Noah knew

that and all week during diet initiation that was the only thing on his mind!!!

Good thing is now he doesn't mind McD's a bit. Our nearby McD's has a playland

and we decided to go there last week. He said in disgust " I can't eat at

Mc's!! " I told him- " don't worry, I'll bring your hot dog, watermelon, &

cream. " That made him happy, he was ok & off we went!! He personally loves to

feed his fries and tear 's cheeseburger in smaller pieces. My

sensational keto 3-year-old. They are amazing, aren't they?

We were warned about this when we asked about having diet coke from

Macs (our kiddie's hosp has a MacD's in the middle of it as a cafe...)

and got told the same - that those machines they use have diff flavors etc

going thru and we could never be 100% sure there was no crossover. Same with

iced water from there.

We still let him have both occasionally though, as I never really noticed

any change in ketones or adverse effects, but the diet coke I limit amyway

as it is not caffeine free, and he starts bouncing off the walls if he has

very much of it....

If we go there as a family it is a treat for him to have a 'real' MacD's

drink and we buy him a separate happy meal toy.

If you child is very sensitive though, probably not a good idea.....
