[quote=Anonymous]What? My kid eats lots of starch -- pasta, rice, fruit, bread. I mean, she's getting veggies and proteins, too, but if I just gave her a meal of broccoli and chicken, she'll pick at them. If I mix them with rice, she'll eat all three. Same with rice and beans, fruit with peanut butter or other protein sources, etc. I do try to limit super processed breads and crackers, but other starches that either have other vitamins and nutrients she needs OR that serve as really useful vehicles for something nutrient rich? I don't even think about it. She's normal weight and active, I think it would be silly (and possibly damaging long term) to obsess about this at this age.[/quote]
