taste test with fruit and veg

but before you do it make sure when you give the parents a list of what they will be trying and ask if they can have them or have had them before with signature

i did this one and every parent signed i gave 1 child kiwi who had never had it before he was fine but the next time he had it he ended up in A+E now has an epipen for life:eek: close shave for me but not good for them
