An Australian mom makes snacks inspired by cartoon characters to get her two-year-old son Jacob excited about eating healthy foods.
Food artist Laleh Mohmedi of Melbourne posts photos of her creations on Instagram at @Jacobs_Food_Diaries and told BuzzFeed that each intricate dish only takes about 20 to 35 minutes to make (if you can believe it.)
She is the latest parent to go viral for making meal times more fun, from the mom in Singapore who makes bento boxes inspired by cartoon characters to the dad in Washington state who makes elaborate pancake breakfasts.
