Babies eating lemons

If you ever needed an excuse for having a baby, watching its face when eating a lemon for the first time is a pretty good one.

    Right then Crikey.
    After watching this, there’s only one question on everyone’s lips………
    Which of one of these was the young Amber Jamieson? :D

    I have one question. What sort of bastard sadistic parents would feed their baby a lemon just so they could get a funny video? No wonder our youth are turning to crime.

    Actually, Mark, the most depressing part is that the video came from grandparents.com., so that shows you where the parents got it from…

    Apart from feeling sorry for the babies for having parents / grandparents who are such turds, it was curious how so few of the babies threw the offending citrus away - for the minute I watched, most kept holding it in their hands looking stunned and closing one eye - which is what I do until the tequila cuts in.

    Nah, none of them looked upset. Surprised, perhaps. A lot of the kiddies laughed outright. I don’t think it’s cruel.

    Now I’m just sad that my niece and nephew are older and I can’t pull that one on them anymore.

    Some of them appeared to like them[1]. Also, some of those ‘lemons’ were limes. I don’t understand why the comments denigrating the parents, it isn’t as if lemon does any harm, now if they were talking extra-hot vindaloo[2]… (although I’ve known young kids that really like curries, that go close to my absolute max hotness threshold) But sour as a taste does no harm.

    [1] I must have been one, lemon and lime are favourite flavours of mine.
    [2] punishment for the adults might be being forced to eat nothing but canned baby food for a week.
