Captain Carlos

I don't know how many of you know who Captain Carlos is, but Trevor has started a new topic of conversation among the family. The little ditty is something like: "Hey big brother, look at all this stuff. If you want a snack, they may be good enough. They sure look like fun!"

It's all about the little sister trying to tempt Captain Carlos to eat junk food over healthy food. One of the scenes is between soda vs. orange juice. So whenever Trevor has his orange juice for breakfast, he talks about how he is making a "super choice". But he then thinks that he can pull whatever he wants is a "super choice". Such as cookies. So I've had to explain that cookies are a junk food.

But what gets a little grey are things like McDonalds. It is one of his favorite foods. And while I can see why fries would be a junk food, I disagree with the entire meal. It's not like a cheeseburger is a junk food. So, it can't be a junk food just because it is from McD's. And Trevor thinks it can't be a junk food unless it is a snack. So that disqualifies it already. What do you think???
