I just wanted to tell you you are not alone, OP.  M IL's act like small children - worse! - in this regard.  DH is a horrible example to DCs in this regard, too.  It is very frustrating.  It never occurred to me to be so picky about anything, especially food.

You know, it never "occurred" to me to be picky about food, either.  It's not my choice.  At all.  It has caused me a lot of pain and embarrassment.  It would be much easier to be able to go to work functions and know I wasn't going to go hungry.  Or go to people's houses and be able to cordially say "sure, I'd love that" to every food offered to me at a friend's house.  Or to avoid all of the verbal abuse, sighs, eye rolling, and crap that I get from people who supposedly love me but disdain my food aversions.

I don't want my child to pick up on my eating weirdness.  I wouldn't wish this on him any more than a mental or physical illness.  It sucks.  And I'm not doing it to inconvenience you, so I doubt your inlaws are either.[/quote]
