[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My teen niece and nephew were pretty bad last time. I told the whole family the menu in advance. The nephew did not eat one item, or try anything, the entire 6 hours in my house. The meal was normal and delicious.

After the meal, I asked if he wanted a PBj, cereal, anything? No, I guess he got hungry and come to find out, they had stopped and got Wendy’s on the way.

I will say, I was not offended. And if they had brought something, that’s great, awesome, go ahead.

I only feel bad for him that he can’t enjoy delicious stuff <— three of four adult siblings and the entire generation of kiddie cousins is like that. The adults at least are polite. The young cousins may grow into their taste buds. The teens bug me more. Even my little kids are not eating mushrooms and fish, etc., but they will try almost anything.

Mil says she never served salad once because the oldest didn’t like it. [/quote]

Delicious to you is not delicious to him.  As long as he was polite, no issues.[/quote]

I agree. I think everyone’s entitled to their food opinions. However, I believe you can barely have an opinion if you haven’t tasted it. (Yes you sort of can in some cases; such as I will never like a runny egg. Even if it’s seasoned differently, it doesn’t matter).

Feel bad for the person who doesn’t like mashed potatoes, a breakfast dish, sweet tomatoes on bread, cut up fruit.[/quote]
