Watch Your Diet / What’s Your Diet

Six-year old Sammy likes to tell on Daddy.

Whenever he sees Daddy putting Maggi seasoning, or ketchup, or mayonnaise on his food, he calls out to Mummy: “MUUUUUMMMMYYYY … Daddy’s putting too much sodium on his fooooood.” 

He knows Daddy (like all adults) must watch his sodium intake. 

One day, at lunch, Daddy pours oyster sauce on his food:

Sammy: MUUUUUMMMMYYYY…. Daddy’s putting oyster sauce on his food.

Daddy: Just a little bit, Sammy.

Sammy: Mummy says sodium is bad for you

Daddy: That’s right.  What is sodium?

Sammy: Sugar.
