How my demented sense of humor changed my sons view of ice cream forever

[IanandSawney]

 Once Upon a Time... I was sharing a pint of ice cream with my son,  he was about three at the time. The Ice cream was half pistachio ( with whole nuts) and half dark chocolate. My favorite part was the pistachio side and his was the chocolate. We are having a great time consuming this delicious Ice cream when I dug out a fat green pistachio nut. To this day I have no clue why I did this, But,  I  held up my spoon so My Son could see the nut and I said  " OH My honey look ! ....eughhh... Its a BUG!!" His sweet little face puckered with disgust. His eyes crossed as he examined the nut,  given the color of the thing is was't really a hard sell to a three year old.  Now as if that  alone where not bad enough ...I than popped  the pistachio into my mouth and ate it.  My poor baby... he was  horror stricken as I crunched down on the pistachio, All he could say was " OHH Mamma....Oh Mamma". His eyes began to water and I wasn't sure if he was going to cry...or vomit.  It would have served me right to have to mop up vomit. because  I was laughing hysterically. I can tell you that at that moment my son was convinced that his mother was the grossest crazy person  in the whole  world.  So,  I got to finish off the pint of ice cream. My Son was no longer interested in eating it, despite my repeated attempts to convince him that I had just played a very mean trick on him. He is twelve now and he is not a picky eater at all , unless of course you offer him chunky ice cream or anything with pistachios.
