It's no secret I work for Cadbury's... Here's what i have seen with my kids compared to my sisters...

We often get gifts from work & I either give it to family etc or throw it up the back of the cupboard, I also get stuff cheap from our onsite shop!
It has ALWAYS been around & Maddy knows after school she can basically help herself to a snack, she usually goes for a yoghurt or passionfruit/apple/banana etc (cost me a fortune in passionfruits!)
Unless she brings a friend or 2 home & they see Choc & their eyes light up, so she will then have choc with them & I say 1 is enough, as the other kids will gorge themselves & many times I have heard them say... Maddy ask your Mum for more!
Maddy smply isnt interested as it's there if she really wanted it, on the other hand my sister never buys snack foods as such, if you pop in there's never a bickie, or anything to have with a cupps, unless she's planning on having someone over for lunch or whatever!!!
When her kids come over theyt have literally spent the day scoffing into choc & sneaking it etc & then spending the night vomiting!!! I think this is because they have totally not been allowed to have any?
Indah has had choc frog & will crawl to anyone eating a pkt chips as these are her favourites... But if you sit her down with a bowl of fruit & yoghurt etc she will eat that before anything else, Maddy prefewrs vegioes (Brussel Sprouts are her all time fave) & Indah likes corn, pumpkin & sweet potato...

I think if they are totally not allowed to try it, they will wnat it even more...

But whilst you can still limit what she tries & eats, then go for it, it's your child to raise how you see fit...

I'd say my niece has a weight issue due to gorging herself whenever she can...


At my sisters 30th b'day (4 yrs ago) we were all a tad tipsy & she had asked me to grab some stuff from work to put in bowls etc, plus they had BBQ, salads & fruit salads etc...

Maddy had a sausage in bread & salad & then fruit salad... My sisters kids had taken a whole bowl of jelly lollies inside & in the morning my sister slightly hungover woke tyo both of them in beds filled with vomited up lollies & lot's of bright colours!!!
