However, I do find it really strange to forget the food you want your child to be eating. 
That actually baffles me. Maybe a Doctor's note would be a good thing, especially if you are participating in the food program.
Even though its pretty strange it does happen and I can see it happening. A parent starts off with "oh I want to be a trendy mom that only makes healthy baby food for my child" or may initially really want to make that change but then come to find out that yes, it takes time and commitment.
I've seen it over and over with cloth diapering too. Mom wants to cloth diaper but forgets or gets tired of washing and caring for the diapers and ends up bribging the child with disposals for a few days until she gets a chance to wash them ... Or just gives up altogether. Lol.
