‘Omg, I thought those were carrots.. but Cheetos?!’ say mum-shamers after a woman shares her one-year-old’s lunch

A WOMAN has found herself brutally mum-shamed after revealing what she served her tot, one, for lunch.

Alexandra Sabol, who describes herself as a ''cool mum'', took to TikTok to proudly show off the food she had prepared for her daughter.

The dish, the mum-of-three shared in the now-viral video, consisted of what appeared to be a few chicken nuggets , as well as a fruit pouch, which the child grabbed immediately.

Whilst the little tot was busy enjoying her smoothie, Alexandra then finished plating the lunch by chucking on a pile of bright orange Cheetos and cut up the nuggets into smaller bitesize sections.

To go with the meal, the parent, believed to be from the USA, also took a Capri-Sun out of the fridge, and gave herself a thumbs-up.

The lunch was finally ready and Alexandra, who posts under the username @alexbabii97, served it onto her couch, which she admitted needed steam-cleaning.

But although the tot may have enjoyed the scrumptious dish, people on the platform were anything but impressed with the ''healthy and nutritious'' meal.

After sharing the clip online, where it's been viewed a whopping 2.6million times in less than 24 hours, Alexandra was met with thousands of mum-shamers.

Over 6k people raced to comments in sheer horror to express their thoughts on the food choices - and many were particularly horrified by the sight of the cheesy treats.

I'm still gonna feed my kids how I want to.''

''I GASPED at the Cheetos,'' wrote one person.

Someone else was just as gobsmacked, writing: ''Omg, I thought those were carrots.. but Cheetos?!''

''Someone please stop her! Why is she feeding her child this crap? She‘s making her sick!'' a third thought.

However, not everyone was so cruel, as loads of social media users also praised the mum and shared tips on how to add more nutrients to the dish.

''That looks good! But maybe instead of applesauce try finding a veggie type of puree to balance the meal out?'' one kind-hearted TikTok fan advised.

A fellow mum said: ''You could do like the Yoplait yogurts tubes with some fruits and cheerios.

''I made my toddlers, they loved it. It was a homemade parfait really.''

''It looks fine! Would be nice to add steamed broccoli and perfect lunch!'' a foodie reckoned.

''Also, instead of juice just give water, she is just one, water is enough.''

Although Alexandra, who's won more than 150k fans on her page, hasn't hit back at the meanies on this particular video, she recently explained why viewers never see any veggies on her daughter's plate.

''She does not eat them [vegetables],'' noted the mum, adding that her son, on the other hand, loved broccoli.

''I started plating vegetables on camera just to make y'all happy and I want y'all to know that every time I feed her vegetables on camera [...], off-camera I need to make her chicken nuggets.

''Because I'd rather my baby to eat than make y'all happy.

''I'm still gonna feed my kids how I want to.''
