Should I feel guilty????

Heinz make every effort to make their food aimed at children palatable, of course.

I do feel quite sorry for children who are never allowed anything that hasn't been home-made from scratch...

I don't see anything wrong with good old Heinz food. Spag hoops, baked beans and soups are all in my store cupboard for quick and easy lunches.

My dgc love them for lunch with toast and I don't feel quilty at all!!

I always keep a couple of tins of alphabet spaghetti for GDs. Great standby for those times when they are unexpectedly here and hungry.

he does not actually live with me, i am in the Granny flat downstairs, and Papa is a French chef, now working with Cheese!!!!!!
He is a wee thing but eats anything put in front of him, I think it was just the pure pleasure on his face when he was eating them, I almost felt guilty about not giving him them before.

My DGDs love them and I know it is something they will eat (only occasionally!).
You can give him an apple mid-morning and some other fruit in the afternoon.

Strangely, generations of children have eaten tinned pasta and have come to no harm.

Thanks, it was watching him tucking in to them, he had one of Grandmas sugar free raspberry lollies afterwards, and seems fine, we might not tell Papa.
They will be awful handy to have around.

I have given them to the DGC occasionally when they didn't want what we were having for lunch. They don't have additives, (they do have some sugar so take the DGC to the park afterwards!) and I give them a bowl of grated cheese to go with them.

It's fine, it's not their main meal. If DIL objected I wouldn't serve them.
I buy the Winnie the Pooh and Dora the Explorer ones.

I give my 9 year old GS a pot noodle quite frequently. He loves them.

No, you shouldn't feel guilty. This is what's in Heinz Spag hoops: Spaghetti Hoops (42%, Water, Durum Wheat Semolina), Tomatoes (41%), Water, Sugar, Modified Cornflour, Salt, Citric Acid, Spice, Garlic Salt, Herb Extract, Spice Extract.

What is there to object to? It's just cooked spaghetti in a tomato sauce in a tin.

Some people will object to the sugar, I suppose, but other than that it's just normal food and just the kind of thing most kids like.
