Would You Like Salt With Your Sippy Cup?

Sippy Sometimes I feel so remiss. For instance, that kerfuffle about poisonous toy trains like two weeks ago. Yeah, I rid my own house of the IQ-robbing Thomas and Co., but did I alert my own dear readers to the recall? No, because I'd rather write about breast milk cheese and dirty diaper bombs.

So this week, I resolve to provide insight on Serious Important Informative news items. Like, if you're looking for a guilt-free way to get your kid to go to bed early for once, consider dinner at Applebee's. Because they store their apple juice and margarita mix in identical containers, making it oh-so-convenient to "accidentally" serve your toddler a sippy cup of the good stuff from South of the Border.

That's what reportedly happened to one California toddler, who drank so much he barfed and had to go to the hospital, thus blowing the cover on the unspoken arrangement among bartender, parents and thirsty little ones that had probably kept that particular Applebee's busy for many years.

Now, wasn't that a useful and informative news tidbit? I feel so virtuous.
