[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm seeing lists by folks of mostly breakfast and snack foods, although the snacks include fruit.  I wonder if your kids have not been exposed to cooked meals for dinner 5-6 days a week that are kid friendly?  Not trying to be snarky.   Exposure is key to adding new foods.  [/quote]

I am one of the people with a picky kid. My kid was fed a hot family style meal at preschool for 4 years (3 preschool years, a year off, another year while he went there for pandemic virtual school, + 2 full summers of camp). Literally a thousand or more meals. He will not eat things he does it like. He had trouble breastfeeding. He was picky as a baby and toddler with purées. There are sweets and desserts he won’t eat.

People who think truly picky eaters are from a lack of parents trying or offering the right combination of food and discipline have no idea what they are talking about. It’s as annoying as people who think bed wetting is a lack of potty training and not a developmental/ medical issue.

My kids are really, really picky. I am also a really good cook and I make beautiful, delicious home cooked meals most nights. It’s always available to my kids. My kids who refuse to try mash potatoes. [/quote]
