Moms On TikTok Recommend The ‘Dinner Roulette’ Trend
Mealtime can be one of the most frustrating parts of being a parent. Kids often complain about what their parents have cooked, and if there are siblings, rarely can they agree on the same food to eat. My younger brother and I rarely wanted the same things when we were kids. Of course, he’d only eat fish sticks and peanut butter & jelly sandwiches. Some moms on TikTok have come up with an idea that may help you during mealtimes.
According to Cafe Mom, ‘dinner roulette’ is a trend that many families are embracing. TikTok mom Bethany started the trend. You have your family sit around the table, which has several plates on it. All the plates are covered, so you don’t know what’s on each one. Kids take turns choosing and each gets a different dinner. For instance, one plate has a burger and fries, one has leftover turkey dinner, and one has a sandwich. Mom and dad play as well, so it’s a game for everyone. And kids get to pick, so if they’re not thrilled with their meal, it’s on them. There’s no pouting so that’s a huge score.
This is a great way to not waste food and eat leftovers. And with kids choosing their own meal, they feel like they’re in control of what they’re eating. And since kids are picking, it’s like a food version of ‘Let’s Make a Deal’. Trades are allowed if both parties agree to it.
Lots of moms have been sharing videos on Instagram and Facebook, so it’s catching on. And not only is it a good way to get rid of leftovers, but it’ll also help kids try new foods too. Check out the video! And let me know if you try the trend!
