[quote=Anonymous]My cousin was an extremely picking eater from basically birth through the age of 18. It was mostly a control thing. She is extremely Type A, over-achiever, perfectionist, etc. She would basically eat ketchup sandwiches (I'm serious). Guess what magically cured her? Going away from home to the Naval Academy. Pretty much "cured" overnight, because she couldn't pull her stunts and force the issue with the commanding officers. Do you think they coddle picky eaters in the plebe mess hall? LOL. Anyway, she grew up pretty fast, once ketchup sandwiches and buttered noodles weren't an option. It was eat or starve, and she couldn't afford to starve with the rigorous academics and athletic regimen. She travels all over the world now, and eats a variety of foods. The first time she was invited to an officer's home for dinner, guess what was served? Tuna casserole. Glad she grew up. [/quote]
