[quote=Anonymous]I know it's too late for picky adults, but I recall a story I heard on the Freakanomics podcast. Babies don't know what flavors do and don't go together. If you feed them a bite of veggies - like spinach followed by a tiny spoon of icecream, like with 5 or 10 seconds - they will form links in their brain that veggies are pleasurable. Also kids need to try a new food 10-20 times before it "takes". I read somewhere that most parents give up around attempt 7. I though this was bunk until I married my husband. His family serves asparagus at almost every meal. It was my least favorite food (TMI but I would start to dry heave just thinking about the smell of asparagus pee[/quote]
