10. What A Nut!
I love a good PB & J as much as the next person, but I always think how disappointed I’d feel as a child if I was given one of those Smucker’s Uncrustables. For how tiny they are, they’re loaded with calories, sugars, and carbohydrates that come primarily from processed ingredients and saturated oils. That’s not Smucker’s, it’s yuckers! Instead, give your child a raw nut butter sandwich with 1/2 a sliced banana on whole grain bread. They still get the nutty goodness, the sweet kick from the banana, and a more satisfying fill from quality bread. You’d be nutty not to go with the homemade version.
