So my 4yo asks what all the colorful cereals are made of. I say sugar mostly. He looks at me dead serious and goes 'Dad you said sugar is bad' and I'm like well this is awkward because clearly I've been exposed as a hypocrite in the breakfast section of Target.
This is hilarious. My 4yo asked me the same thing about Fruity Pebbles and when I said mostly sugar he literally said 'that's the best thing ever'. Kids have no filter sometimes.
I'm dying to know how this ended. Did he demand the sugary cereal after that or call you out?
This is peak dad energy. I'm stealing this one to use on my kids. They'll probably call me out just like your 4yo did though.
Dead serious 4yo looks are the best. That's the moment they're realizing you're not always right about everything. What did he say back?

Ha! The dead serious look is what makes it. Four year olds have zero chill when they realize you're not being completely straight with them.
The way kids just stare at you when you think you're being clever is incredible. Sounds like he won that round pretty decisively.
