[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think people like this are fine eating the same “safe foods” over and over again. They don’t care about having meal variety. So I’d make a big batch of the 2 things they eat, then when you have subsequent dinners, they can go back and have a scoop of leftover meatloaf if they don’t want to eat the fish dinner or whatever. I also find it highly annoying that these folks are typically NOT the ones doing the hard work of thinking of the meals, shopping for them, preparing them or cleaning them. [/quote]

In my experience, these people absolutely will not eat leftovers.

I also have a bit of an issue with what types of food relatives want to eat. My family has more of a cold breakfast- yogurt, fruit, bread and jam, some meats (I mean sliced or my favorite would be lox) and cheeses. One set of family members wouldn't touch any of that with a 5ft pole. They need bacon, sausage, pancakes, eggs potatoes. They don't even like toast which I thought could be a compromise. They call our breakfasts "froo froo food". It's really annoying because we spend like 30 min cooking, 30 min eating, 30 min cleaning up just from breakfast. My family was used to not eating much and having a larger lunch and dinner (and yes, I have small kids). Those people stuff themselves at breakfast and don't eat lunch. I struggle to eat breakfast (I just don't feel hungry and food seems to upset my stomach) so I just got used to packing myself a sandwich for lunches because no lunch was forthcoming. [/quote]
