"Gummy bear moms" are a trend taking off on TikTok, and honestly, I’m glad. I feel like it takes the pressure off to find a bit more balance, rather than making sure every single item is "clean" eating, per the "almond moms." This type of parenting normalizes all types of foods and relishes playing the host with a stocked pantry.
At one parent’s house, there were few snacks aside from those huge, too-crunchy pretzels and some crusty marshmallows. At the other parent’s house, though we didn’t have a ton of money, we had cereals my friends liked, Oreos, and lots of fruits and veggies around. I noticed the differences at a young age and that at the less snacky house, I wanted snacks more... likely because I couldn’t have them.
