Mom Tip #5: No one wants to eat a leftover sandwich
Problem: I always have trouble getting a kid to finish a leftover sandwich, however I also don’t want to throw away a sandwich with only a bite or two out of it.
Solution: Cut the sandwich into bite-sized pieces and provide toothpicks.
Somehow this just works. The kids think it’s fun to eat with toothpicks and it no longer matters that the sandwich has been sitting in the fridge since yesterday.
Other applications: I have actually used the toothpick trick on a variety of leftovers. My kids will eat almost anything if you give them a toothpick to eat it with.
