I ask her what she would like to eat this morning.
-Him, a nice red apple, maybe… with what can I eat it? A cinnamon roll!
-Ok, do you need my help?
-No, I will wash the apple and put the roll on a plate.
After a few minutes, she comes back to ask what should she eat first, the apple or the roll. I prepare my answer, that maybe she eats the roll first, since is her first meal of the day. When my words are preparing to get out of my mouth, she responds in a very serious voice:
-I know, I should eat the bread first… in this way the malic acid won’t hurt my tummy!
I stop. Breathing, moving, thinking, everything. Where did she heard about the malic acid? My face makes her respond to that, even if my though was a silent one.
– I red about the malic acid hurting your tummy in one of the Dog Man books.
I didn’t knew much about the malic acid before today. It is a sign I should read more comic books, Dog Man stories more precisely 🙂 And definitely eat more fruits, apples, red apples.
