George has some odd toddler behaviors. One of these is that he likes to gnaw on raw sweet potatoes while sitting in grocery carts. He first exhibited this behavior while I was shopping for Thanksgiving dinner last November. The other day we were shopping in the produce aisle and he started whimpering and lurching out of the cart. Turns out we were near the sweet potato section. I picked one up and he grabbed it out of my hands and commenced chewing. Other kids whine for candy, mine wants a raw tuber.
