There were so many things (high fructose corn syrup, hydrogenated oils, etc) that I would never feed my child, but Rakicy and I ate them on occasion, we're now trying to get rid of them all together. We cook at home most nights and we take our lunches 4 days/week. One thing that has really helped me is to keep a selection of homemade freezer meals (marinara sauce, casseroles, etc) and staples (frozen corn, etc). I'm not quite to the OAMC level, but there are nights that we would have been tempted to eat junk that having something homemade on hand has been the key to success for us.
