Porn in the produce aisle

It's not what your thinking.  This post isn't about naked people so get your mind out of the gutter! :)

Little Man is 2 and though he can make the c and k sounds he for some reason calls corn porn.  I'm not sure why he does it but no matter how I try he continues.

A few weeks ago Little Man and I had a fun adventure at the grocery store.

While walking through the produce section Little Man spies the corn. He starts yelling "porn, porn, porn!"  Now the little old ladies are staring at me with disgust.  Apparently they weren't looking for porn in the produce aisle.

We continue shopping and awhile latter Little Man remembers that we didn't get any corn and proceeds to yell at me "I wan Porn!"  Meanwhile a guy in his twenties is trying not to laugh while he picked out his cereal.  I plead with Little Man telling him that we have CORN at home.  Making sure the emphasize corn for everyone around.  Now the moms around me are smiling.  They've been here before.

We make it to the freezer section with no more talk of porn.  Unfortunately, I buy frozen corn fairly often and Little Man knows this.  He starts crying out, "I wan porn. I wan porn, I wan PORN!"  Now people are staring.  I sternly tell Little Man, "no, no porn, we have porn at home." Wait. What?  Yep, now I'm saying porn and lots of people are staring.  Moms are quickly pushing their carts away from the freezer section and these porn addicts.

Quickly I try to recover, " no not porn, its corn, CORN."  It's too late.  Everyone already thinks my son wants porn.

Oh well.  At least my kid eats fruits and vegetables, even if he does call corn porn.

That's the life of a mom.
