I don't have any rabbits!

As an 85-year-old dad with a daughter who thinks I need to eat them leafy green things, I assert my fatherly privilege. I tell her to feed that stuff to the rabbits. I don't have any rabbits either, so she either eats them herself, or leaves them at the store.

I don't know why, but daughters seem to think dads need a better diet. I tell mine that I didn't get to be 30 years older her on a rabbit food.

Don't worry. It doesn't matter what we eat, we still love the attention.

My big sister did not approve. But she can't do anything about it as she can't feed my dad everyday.

Last night I got Dad to cook the spinach he selected and I also made some kale crisps and he ate those. Along with fries and the fish fingers. He does eat veges but I have to prompt him. He likes unfrozen peas.
 
I snuck in some chopped celery into his noodles.
I have to sneak because if I'm cutting parsley onto soup he'll say 'I don't want that stuff on mine'.

It's probably just raw veges, though. They are fine cooked.

I'm just on this thread because there's been a lot of talk about breaking up the duopoly of supermarkets in nz, but really its just all talk and no action. We have PLENTY of asian supermarkets here if people want to get fresh veges, there's a Fruit World, there's outdoor markets, there are a lot of dairies selling convenience foods, and gas stations.

So not sure if having more individual grocery stores makes much difference. Maybe in the smaller towns, but small towns have always just had the one Four Square or something like that. Also a 'mom and pop' store basically takes over your whole life, you need to open all hours, and your children get roped into helping when they don't want to.
