Weird things your parents did

My dad never ate a vegetable in his life and every meal was eaten with a spoon instead of a fork. He only ate the whitest of WonderBread. He would stand in the bread aisle holding it up to the light to make sure there wasn't a speck of whole grain. I would look at the donuts and pretend I didn't know him.

One thing you don’t realize as a kid growing up is that you’re watching your parents grow up too.

He would have loved Japan - all the bread in the supermarkets, bakeries etc is like this, anything bar very white processed bread is really hard to find. Brown bread could be found if I was lucky and searched diligently, and as for multigrain or other high fibre varieties, forget it. Its the one thing I dont like about Japan

Legally separated several times but always got back together.

r1 Well, no, because most of us had ADULTS as parents. It's not like today where 30somethings insist they're still "kids" and hate "adulting".
