[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not what you want to hear, OP... but we limited kid food between 0-3 so they would develop a taste for other things.  No snacks except fruit and only water between meals. Start meals with vegetables, then protein, then grain. A lot of variety and little pasta, bread, etc. They were hungry so they ate everything. We also took them to a lot of ethnic restaurants early on — Mexican, Indian, Thai, middle eastern, Korean, etc. — and made a big deal about how delicious the food was. They learned to love trying new things and will eat everything we eat. I feel like it is harder when they get older because it becomes a control issue and also a psychological familiarity one. Anxiety develops between ages 3-8 so kids at those ages often don’t want to try new things. YMMV.[/quote]

You clearly don't understand food aversions. Your post is nonsensical.

Nobody cares what your kids eat, do you have advise on kids that can't/won't eat certain foods, if you stop posting on this thread. [/quote]

This argument is had here so frequently.  "I did not allow my child to be picky!"  This parent has not met your kid though....and has no idea what she would do with him/her[/quote]

+1, but the flip side is that their kids is also accustomed tone foods *they* eat. Eating sushi but rejecting chicken nuggets is just another form of picky, although parents would like to pat themselves on the back for having a sushi eating kid. At least nugget loving parents see the issue. [/quote]
