[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why does the kid who doesn't like zucchini required to eat it? It's not as if it has unusual nutrients that aren't obtainable in other foods. [/quote] Because otherwise they're going to grow up into someone like this person [url]http://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/397957.page[/url] Picky eaters aren't born that way - they're catered to. You gotta nip it in the bud early, and introduce "disliked" foods early, even in sneaky ways. That way people learn that they don't actually dislike something - just maybe need to rethink how to cook it. It keeps your palate more prone to being open.[/quote] OMG, Depending on the day, it's genetics or horrible parenting Bad Genes http://www.nytimes.com/2007/10/10/dining/10pick.html?pagewanted=all&_r=0 http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/03/22/picky-eating-genetic-heredity-children-food_n_2926924.html Bad Parents http://parenting.blogs.nytimes.com/2014/02/19/this-kind-of-picky-eater-is-made-not-born/ http://www.huffingtonpost.com/karl-wilder/picky-eaters-are-made-not_b_5272896.html The OP you're quoting obviously has a lot of food hang ups.[/quote]
