[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it starts early, really early. As in, first foods. We always gave them small tastes of whatever we were eating, including “ethnic” foods. My kids are now 9, 6 and 4 and while they still have typical kid preferences, they are much less picky than other kids their age. We go out to eat a lot and they do not like spicy foods, but are great with pickled, tart, or fishy flavors. They also eat their vegetables, with some prompting for ones they don’t like as much. We also always make them try something just once when they whine. And when the grocery stores have samples on the weekend I take them around to the sample stations to try new stuff.
