It's good to have cargo. Makes us a target for every other scavenger out there, though, but sometimes that's fun too.

Trust me, I heard that argument from plenty of people. FIL even slipped the kid a bit of ham one time. I'm fairly certain he never did again after I told him how I felt in clear language.

Huh. According to [link] , in 1900, 80% of children in American cities had rickets. I wonder how severe it had to be before they got counted in that number.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I wonder if it's coincidental that many place with less sunlight have a lot of fish in their diets, traditionally? Or I could be making shit up again.

Guess it would be tough to have a Vitamin D deficiency growing up in Florida.

Unless you hide from the sun all the time! Which, of course, people should do.

That's my theory. (I had low Vitamin D when I was tested in January, so I've been thinking about Vitamin D a lot. My doctor blamed the fact that I'm vegetarian and don't drink much milk. I blamed the fact that it was January.)

I'm guessing they added together. Doesn't grain stuff have added D, too?

In the kids-are-resilient-and-adaptable, I present my nephew who stole handfuls of hot salsa when he was under a year and just put that stuff away with glee! And he was a formula baby. He's a healthy, active 5.5 year old who eats anything you put in front of him and will often pick out something so exotic, even his garbage disposal dad pauses at (though if he says he doesn't want to eat it, listen. He's got a good reason somewhere and it has often come back up unexpectedly.)

Whatever works for you and keeps them healthy.

Doesn't the human body actually produce its own vitamin D with mild sun exposure?
