[quote=Anonymous]I also don't cook an alternative, but I have other easy options on hand. Chicken nuggets, Easy Mac, quesadillas, sandwiches, etc. The way I see it, kids are people. My husband hates peas and I don't like shellfish. If it was served, I wouldn't eat it and I'd eat something later. My 6yo can't cook her own meal "later", so if we want to eat something she doesn't like, I make her something easy that she does. Since she's not a picky eater, I don't worry. (She loves all veggies and steak, but she isn't really into French fries or potatoes or other meats.) I'm also not worried because my mom made EVERYTHING from a box or a can as a child, and I love Thai and Indian and sushi and Middle Eastern, and on and on. I didn't develop a taste for those until I was older. But to say a child will "never" have a broad palate if they don't eat from a broad menu as a child, is BS.[/quote]
