A person wrote, “When I was little my mom had a stomach bug. As she started to feel better and got hungry I made her a pb&j. Was the first food I ever made. I brought it to her bedside and took a step stool so I could watch over her as she slept. She said it was the best sandwich she ever had.”

But, not all stories had great cooks. A user recalled how his pregnant mother was tired of his lunches. He said, “When I was 5, my mom got pregnant with my little brother. She started bleeding so was put on bed rest. I'd come home from KG & make her lunch. It was bad enough she finally got up saying if she lost the baby, she lost it...but she couldn't take any more of my lunches.”
Some even stated that the child's “perfect” salad is “the sweetest thing” on the Internet.
