Fruit is a challenge. We are a 90% house. We will do projects 90% of the way then get sidetracked, cleaning goes well 90% of the time...Kids love something for a time then are over it!
Fruit, we love it the first day, enjoy the second, tolerate the third, then are done! I sometimes let them eat the whole package the first day so it doesn't go bad, but that kind of violates my moderation principles. If we don't eat it all the first day there is always a few grapes or a berry or chunks of watermelon that go uneaten...even apples have occasionally gone bad.
