Ben is a very big foody! His mom is a Taskmaster, and ofcourse she needs to, for handling her naughty Ben! Ben loves Burgers a lot! Ben has a very deep connection between him and junk food! But Ben's mom knows very nicely how to tackle and handle her son, just like a pro!

 ~~~~~~~On one fine morning:-

Ben: Mom, Good Morning!

Mom: A very Good Morning, Ben!

Ben: What's for breakfast today?

Mom: Every time my dear son is thinking and talking about food! My foody! Well, if you've asked then today I've made your favourite breakfast! It's very special!

Ben: Woho! What's that! Please tell Mum... Don't create so much suspense!!

Mom: Okay! Today for breakfast is... Milk and Eggs!!!

Ben: Pheww!! Yukk! What's special in that! You know Mom that I don't like such awful breakfast! It's better that I don't even eat breakfast! This breakfast is very typical! Everything repeats in this home..

Mom: Ben, you should eat Milk and Eggs! They're very very healthy! I know that you like junk food but eating it too much is bad for health! You should balance between healthy and junk food! 

Ben: Ahh! Okay! I'll eat but Mom why do we eat eggs? Is there anything special that we get from eggs?

Mom: Yes! We get proteins from eggs.

Ben: Proteins? Are they important for our body?

Mom: Not important! They're very important. We need proteins for growth and repair of our body. 

Ben: Oh.. I see! Interesting!

Mom: For you, the most interesting thing is food. Isn't it?

Ben giggles.

~~~~~~~~After few hours:-

Ben: Mom, Can I have some cookies please?

Mom: Sure. But only 2 cookies!

Ben: Ahh!! Okay!!

Mom gave cookies to Ben.

Ben: Mom, these cookies are yum! Please I want one more..

Mom: Nope! Too much cookies are bad for health! They're rich in trans-fats! Fats are of two types- Good fats.. You can call them our friends because they help us! There are evil guys too! They're called trans-fats. Eating too much of trans- fats is harmful for us! And as a result we also suffer from unwanted weight gain and obesity and sometimes heart diseases too!

Ben: Oh! I didn't knew this Mom! Thanks for telling.. Now I'll eat only few cookies in a month!

Mom: Good. 

Ben: Mom, I've one question!

Mom: Ask.

Ben: Mom, are fats always bad for us?

Mom: No dear. As I told you earlier, not all fats are bad for us! There are good fats too. They're present in dry fruits, avacados, meat etc. These fats help our body in various ways. They're totally opposite to trans- fats! And one more thing, Unlike good fats, trans-fats are present in pizzas, burgers, chips, butter and all the stuff, moreover junk food, that you kids love! 

Ben: Ohh.. ( looks upset)

Mom: Don't worry! I won't be taking away your right of eating junk food! Excess of junk food is bad but you can surely eat it after short intervals! But not like, ate Pizzas in breakfast, French Fries and Burgers in Lunch and Ice- Cream, Cakes, Cold drinks in Dinner!

Ben: Okay Mom! I'll follow this piece of advice by you.

Mom: Great!

~~~~~~~~ In evening:-

Mom gives fruit salad to Ben. 

Ben: Mom! Fruit Salad! I hate it! In morning you said that milk and eggs are important for our body so I ate them! In afternoon, you told that I should minimise eating junk food so I promised you that I'll not eat it too much but now this fruit salad? Do I really have to eat this?

Mom: I know today you followed my words very sincerely. This is the last thing for today that you've to listen of mine. Please just eat it! It's very tasty! Eat it as though it's Noodles! You'll have the same feel and nutrients will go inside your tummy! 

Ben: Mmmmm.... 

Mom: Ben, Fruit salad provides you with numerous vitamins and minerals! They help our body to fight against the evil and harmful microbes that rush inside our body! 

Ben: So, they're the fighters?

Mom: Yes! Fighters who fight without any guns or bombs!! They're believers of Non- Violence! Isn't it ?

Ben giggles and eats the salad with a bitterly reaction on his face.

Mom: How's it?

Ben: Actually, it's yum!

Mom: That's because I've added Mayonnaise in it!

Ben: Seriously? That's why it's so delicious! Really Mom, today we made a perfect diet plan!

Mom: Yes! Will you follow it everyday?

Ben: Will try! Only if you will follow it with me!

Mom: I'll follow it, actually I follow it everyday!

Ben: Yes that's true!

Both smiled.
