[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t understand this clearly. OP, who’s hosting and doing the cooking? You or the fussy relative?[/quote] We'll gather at a grandparent's house, but the grandparent isn't cooking. Each household will bring a few dishes. So, we're having discussions to make sure we aren't duplicating (e.g. 5 turkeys). So, the objections are coming up in that context. [/quote] She tells her kids that this isn't like a regular meal; it's like the cafeteria at school or going out to eat. They have to pick [whatever -- a protein, a vegetable, and a fruit?], and if they want to try some other things but it turns out they don't like them, that's fine. They only have to eat the protein, veg, and fruit they picked. [/quote]
