[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The reason most kids don’t like veggies is due to bitterness (many plants make toxins that taste bitter as a defense mechanism), adults have just gotten used to these tastes. Many veggies also make kids feel lousy.

Focusing in Whole Foods, meats, fats, some dairy and fruits will provide better nutrition to growing children versus a “balanced” standard American diet of highly processed carbs, GMO grains and veggies and seed oils. Nutritionally dense food tastes good and kids will eat it. Think about that for a moment. This challenges the norm but could vastly improve your family’s life and longevity. [/quote]

Funny because the new strategy of just feeding babies everything that adults eat mean that my 1 year old grandson will eat all veggies.  His tastes haven't been acculturated to sugar and salt, so the veggies taste fine.  It's been fun to watch him grab the green beans or Brussel sprouts.  Favorite = guacamole.[/quote]

Newsflash. Parents have always fed babies what adults eat. Since the dawn of time. They just don't like all of it. Just like adults. [/quote]

Seriously. Do you think we enjoy finding different ways to get our kids to eat vegetables? Why WOULDN’T we just feed them what we ate if it were that easy?

Also, for both of my kids the pickiness got worse [i]after[/i] age 1. Maybe your grandson will continue enjoying all veggies, some kids do. Or maybe he'll start refusing foods he used to eat like mine did. Hard to say at this stage! [/quote]
