"Mommy, why did you tell the waiter not to bring any fries?"

I took my children out to lunch today and ordered their lunch "without fries". My five-year old son got upset. "Mommy, how come you told the waiter not to bring any fries?" I looked him in the eyes and said, "Because fries are not good for your heart and I want your heart to be as healthy as possible". He looked at me and said, "Oh". End of discussion. Sometimes it is as easy as that.

I had a good experience the other day at a diner with my daughter, too. They offered lettuce and tomato with our omelette instead of fries - unprompted! We both accepted, and it was a smooth fry-free meal. Yay!!!!!
