Food should bring people together, not tear them apart. Think of the human on the other side of the screen, and don't troll, harass, engage in bigotry, or otherwise make others uncomfortable with your words.

2. NO ADVERTISING

This community is for sharing pictures of awesome food, not a platform to advertise.

3. NO MEMES

4. PICTURES SHOULD BE OF FOOD

Preferably good, high quality pictures of good looking grub; for pictures of terrible food, see !shittyfoodporn@lemmy.ca

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legal_drinking_age

Seventeen states (Arkansas, California, Connecticut, Florida, Kentucky, Maryland, Massachusetts, Mississippi, Missouri, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Mexico, New York, Oklahoma, Rhode Island, South Carolina, and Wyoming) and the District of Columbia have laws against possession of alcohol by minors, but they do not prohibit its consumption by minors.

Fourteen states (Alaska, Colorado, Delaware, Illinois, Louisiana, Maine, Minnesota, Missouri, Montana, Ohio, Oregon, Texas, Wisconsin, and Virginia) specifically permit minors to drink alcohol given to them by their parents or by someone entrusted by their parents.^[citation needed]^

Many states also permit the drinking of alcohol under the age of 21 for religious or health reasons.

If you're in one of the above states, it's probably fine as long as you're with her. As a backup, just invent your own religion that has a special ceremony at age 5, consisting of this exact meal, with wine.

I mostly assume it's one of those "don't get crazy and get caught" situations. You let them taste some alcohol every once in a while so they don't get weird ideas about it and go too hard when they get older. But we're talking tastes, not shots. If they show up drunk with alcohol poisoning, I suspect you will have to answer some unfriendly questions to answer in all of the states. (Also, I mean, it's bad for them. Don't do that.)

Well... Our state isn't listed. But if you can't trust Lemmy posts then who can you trust?!
