How to get yourself sent to your room: In one bite or less

To accomplish this mission, you will need:
- One plate full of french fries and fish sticks
- small amount of ketchup
- one (un)willing little brother

When your little brother, who rarely eats anything other than bread or potato products actually begins to eat a fish stick, and your mother stops mid-bite to see if he will actually eat it, you should then say in a taunting voice, "Hey, did you know those have little FISH in them?!"

When he is horrified, stops chewing and spits out the only meat he might have had that week fish stick, you should snicker with delight, because you just wanted to see if you could eat his anyway.

That should do it. You should probably be in your room in 10 seconds or less, loudly lamenting your choice.

Take this advice from a mom that has been there and done that. He'll grow out of it... Enjoy the moments that they're hardly eating anything. One day, all too soon they'll eat you out of house and home.
