that's what I was thinking. Maybe she's at that stage where she's pretending to be an animal?

I'm guessing OP's daughter is only a toddler, so maybe she is trying to imitate the cat.

It's funny to picture her as a teenager.

Perhaps one of Snooki's followers?

Oh goodness. Please let her be a toddler instead of a follower...

We can only hope for our failing generation.

My 10 year old brother is exactly like this.... He refuses to eat anything that's over a day old or if someone else touched yet countless times he put a piece of gum or candy that he found laying on the floor of a public mall.

OP should get this checked out with a doctor if the daughter can't explain why she does it. It sounds like pica and/or anorexia (there are lots of different kinds, so not necessarily the nervosa one...)

Maybe she doesn't like your cooking....

There is a stage for that?

Either your food is absolutely disgusting, or your daughter is just in a phase. I actually know a few people that would try weird things to eat as kids, dry cat food included, but few people are willing to admit the weird things like that they have done

Age seems like a very important thing that OP left out

Am I the onlyone reading "10 months old son" ??

Ok it says 10 month old plus it's a boy not a she -.-

Uh, guys OP's 'daughter' is actually their son...

Does anybody actually READ the FML's anymore? TEN month old SON. Says the age and gender right in the first line and somehow you missed it

When I read the FML at first, it was daughter. Ask the other early commenters.

HE. "10-month one SON"

OP probably doesn't have any appliances on the floor, perhaps you meant put the food on the floor so she could eat it?

Don't need any appliances to make a sandwich, or salad, or...

You see the real problem is that the mom is a horrible cook

Honestly, the only problem with this is you are teaching your child it is ok to eat off the floor. It's not ok, nor should they be enticed to eat things that aren't food. But, sometimes you choose your battles with kids and you might have the answer.

Uh, she is probably a baby. All babies do this.

She probably has Pica.

Yeah, it's called they are using one of their senses to explore the world around them. However, based off your picture I can assume you probably don't explore anything but your butt on the couch!

I smoke pot, and I am a teenager in grade 12, with, on average, high grades. I work about 30 hours a week, and I enjoy paintballing, snowboarding, swimming, biking, and many other things involving outdoors. But how is this possible? I'm just a lazy stoner right?

128 - relevance?...there is none.

I was referring to 122's comment...

Couldn't agree more.

BACON!!

Even vegans like bacon.

Pigs love bacom too

*bacon normally i wouldnt correct myself but bacon is pretty important

If you didn't correct yourself I might've been inclined to assassinate you. I take bacon very seriously you see.

66 is not just a jewish nazi. He is a jewish fuhrer. Don't see many of those nowadays, what with all this equality and toleration bullshit going around. It's probably just a phase though, and 66 knows what's up so he is declaring himself the future jewish fuhrer before anyone else can make a claim. Smart guy.

Most sensible suggestion so far! Wish I'd thought of it when my babies were putting everything off the floor in their mouths. Seriously - you can sweep and mop every hour and they'll still find something to chew on!

*him. It's a boy.

Wait, that's a phase? It seems mine intend to make a permanent lifestyle out of making me crazier.
