How Can I Get My Mother In Law To Respect My Diet? – Daily Dilemma

Here is Today's Daily Dilemma:

I have chosen to eat all clean foods – meaning I don’t eat anything processed or that comes in a box, basically. My husband is almost on board with this diet and eats what I make us for dinner – although he does still buy cereal at times. When we go visit his parents, his mother gets completely defensive when I choose not to eat some of what she prepares for dinner. Most of what she makes comes out of a box – and I just choose not to put the chemicals and artificial stuff into my body but it gets so uncomfortable because my mother in law can’t understand and for some reason thinks it’s just about her cooking. We’re going to visit again in a few weeks for a weekend, and I don’t want to eat the food just to make peace, but I really don’t want to cause issues over it.

The "Daily Dilemma" on the Sean and Richie Show is featured every weekday morning at 6:40am. We and the listeners take on someone's problems and try to offer different perspectives. Now, these don't have to be huge problems- it could just be something bothering you or a friend, or it could be some little thing you and another just can't agree on. If you have a dilemma to share we'd love to hear it just e-mail us here at the show.
