In an interview with Parade, Jessica said that for her family — which includes sons Silas, 10, and Phineas, 4, with husband Justin Timberlake — one of those places is iconic restaurant chain McDonald’s.
“I’m like, ‘Sorry, guys, I’m not doing it,'” she said of going to McDonald’s with her sons. “They don’t get McDonald’s.”
Jessica explained that her concern lies in the ingredients. “I just feel like I don’t know what’s going on with [the] quality of that food,” she shared. “It’s stuff like that that I’m like, ‘No, we’re not.’ Let’s go have a great burger and fries at a fancy place. I’d rather pay more for you to have something fancy than something like that.”
Jessica insisted she’s not “crazy, rigid and strict” — it’s just one rule her children have to abide by. “That would be something that, if they asked me for, I would just be like, ‘Next! Next place. Next down the line!'”
You already know the comments prompted opinion online.
Many readers agreed with her. Writing under a People magazine post about Jessica’s comments, one person said, “It’s so unhealthy. I agree. Has it been in my house, yep. But as I age, nopers.”
Another person wrote, “Mine too …. I make my own burgers with good quality ingredients….”
At the same time, some thought it was a little unfair to her children. “Poor little boys,” one person wrote in part, as another person said they’re “glad [they] don’t live there.”
Some also felt that Jessica’s comments were a bit out of touch, as McDonald’s is sometimes the only affordable option for many people. “See here’s the thing Jessica, some of us are poor,” someone wrote, as another person said her comments reeked of “privilege.”
“Ok millionaire.. thanks for sharing,” commented another.
While someone else said, “‘Kim, there’s people that are dying.'”
