[quote=Anonymous]OP and at least one other poster have convinced themselves there's a moral or ethical aspect to being picky or to choosing not to eat. People who get this wrapped up around food confuse me. It's just food. FFS. As a frequent host with a wide palate myself, I don't get spun up if one of my guests doesn't like eggplant or the broccoli on the plate or the way I grilled the chicken. It doesn't hurt my feelings as long as they don't say something mean and I don't think that they are bad people because they don't want to eat a certain food Really. People need to separate all these weird expectations and feelings they have around food. This is crazy. Also, convincing yourself that your child is going to grow up to have scurvy rickets or whatever because he didn't eat vegetables often as a kid is a self-licking ice cream cone. Your solution is the problem.[/quote]
