We know that both Claudia and Janine hide candy in their rooms but what about their parents?
I'd like to think that they do but I don't think they hide as much candy in their room as Claudia does in hers. I think it would have been interesting to read about Claudia finding candy in their room. A story like that could be called "The Kishi Family Secret."

It would be fun to read about that plot! I voted for "Not Sure", since we don't hear much about the characters' parents.

I voted yes just because I want it to be true

Maybe one does but the other doesn't. I'm thinking Mr. Kishi.

I think the answer might lie in who does the grocery shopping. We know either John or Rioko bought those cinnamon buns and didn't they at one time have toaster-made waffles? I know the latter isn't necessary "junk" it just seems like they might have considered as such. I realize they could have bought a multi-grain type product. Wasn't it John who looked sadly at Claudia while she was eating the Cinnamon buns (or something not generally up to Kishi "health" food standards) and said something like "the more it tastes like junk food, the more you like it?" Too bad Claudia didn't follow up with some sort of quip back, either "don't you ever have a sweet tooth?" or better, calling him on his stash while letting him know she saw him eat a candy bar at one time.
Out of John or Rioko, didn't we "know" Rioko a little better? Maybe. I could picture her sneaking a snickers before a long meeting or if she knew lunch would be late.

Or what if they would have found a stash of candy when they cleaned on Mimi's room?
I see John hiding candy and Rioko being the stickler about it moreso than the other way around.

^Since Mimi bought Nancy Drew's she probably also helped replenish Claudia's candy supply, at least occasionally surprising her (C) with a treat. Now, I'm sad realizing we never even knew if Mimi had a sweet tooth. My own Grandma sure did. Back to Claudia, surely someone (maybe Janine)? had to have lended her a "shopping" hand when she was a little girl. Although maybe back then, her parents were less strict, and hiding candy wasn't as big a production. Lol, I just had the funny thought/image of (if Claudia were the one living next door to Kristy instead of MA), Kristy sending a bundled package of goodies across a rope line the way she supposedly really did (a treat, homework, note, etc) with Mary Anne.

I voted no because why would they need to? I really don't think they were a zero junk food house. And, if they were a zero junk food house I don't see them being hypocrites and sneaking food while they forbid their kids from eating it.

I voted no also because I can't see the Kishi parents as hypocrites either.

^ I remember in the first Friends Forever super special, Claudia and her family went to an isolated island and Claudia discovered that her mom was reading a romance novel and Janine was using her computer. I don't remember what Mr. Kishi was caught doing but Claudia was shocked at how she was the only one that kept the promise (not sure if that's the right word) of not bringing the outside world into the island vacation (I have to read Claudia's plot line to remember what they promised each other to do/not do while they were there).

Nah, I’d they did then it would be around the house more. Claudia wouldn’t have a reason to hide it. Now if they splurged here and there is a different matter.

^ Perhaps they hide it only in their room so their kids wouldn't know about it.

Probably occasionally the Kishis splurge on sugary treats and sometimes allow their daughters to occasionally splurge on sugary treats.
For the most part, John and Rioko are not fanatical about forbidding all sugar and junk food like some fitness-oriented parents are.
