Another Food Failure

So I decided to try and trick the kids into eating veggie burgers for lunch the other day.  I grilled them, put them on the buns with the fixin's, and we all sat down. 
Tyler: "What is this?  It looks different."
Mom:  "A burger.  I bought premade patties instead of making my own."
Gabrielle:  "It's really tender.  MOM, IS THIS TOFU???"
Mom, giggling:  "No, it's not tofu."
Gabrielle, suspiciously:  "It's different.  I like your usual burgers better."
Mom:  "It's a veggie burger."

So the verdict is, Tyler would eat it again, Evie prefers hot dogs anyway, and Gabrielle reminded me that she is a CARNIVORE, and would I please stop trying to change her meat into "healthy stuff".
