[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well as a former picky eater I generally think people stress way too much over it. I'm not picky at all as an adult. [/quote]

+1 on all of this. I was catered to too much as a kid. [b]There's no picky eating in poor families, underdeveloped countries, etc.[/b]

I'm not a short-order cook. Our kids eat everything as a result.[/quote]

First, this is false.

Second, I'm not sure that "You'd eat this if you were literally starving" is the goal I'm going for. There are things I wouldn't eat unless I were extremely hungry, and I'm not a picky eater.

There are picky eaters across the entire economic spectrum.  I take my daughter to Kennedy Krieger Feeding Clinic.  Plenty of inner city folks there.  Plenty of West Africans.  Plenty of Asians.  Plenty of WHATEVER.[/quote]

Those people are here in this country, where even if you are hungry, you still have choices.  They are not in Somalia, where you get what you get, if anything. [/quote]
