[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hi Op, haven’t read the whole thread, but wanted to chime in. My 6 year old is an extremely picky eater, but will eat pepperoni pizza like nobody’s business. When the rest of the family wants to go out to eat to a non pizza serving place,  we bring a small pepperoni pizza for him to eat. We do this almost weekly and have not had any comments from any establishment.  We are a 4 person family, but usually order a lot of food and drinks. We make up for the 6 year old not eating. Now admittedly, we aren’t doing this at Komi or Pineapple & Pearls and we tip well.[/quote]

I just can't fathom doing this with a 6 year old who, it seems, doesn't have any particular SN and is just a picky eater.

When do you plan on pulling the cord on this?  There has to be some point where you won't feel ok bringing a slice of pizza for your kid, and how is your kid ever going to learn to broaden his horizons?

A lot of the work to expand his palate should be done at home -- and I hope you are doing what you can for your sake and your kid's -- but you also need to get him accustomed to trying things in restaurants.  But he isn't going to do that if he knows he can just have pizza. [/quote]

+1, I have a picky child.  Kid at at home or would find something, even minimal like rice.   Now he's willing to eat more and expand things but it takes time.  You don't bring food into a restaurant. Either they eat there, eat before or eat after.[/quote]
