Plus a million for Ellyn Satter
Very few people who follow her recommendations (IME) have "picky eaters." And those who do, hey, it's understandable-- there have always been people with sensory issues, etc. But living in America, you'd think it was purely biological for the average kid to eat nothing but 3 bland kid-style proteins, 2 vegetables, 5 fruits and endless grain-based carbs. It's not.

This one is great. By far the most influential and helpful parenting resource I’ve encountered.

I am a ftm and have an almost one year old who, until recently, would eat everything we put in front of him. He's starting to get more picky, which I understand is completely normal. I want to read up on best practices for healthy and adventurous eating in kids, how to handle pickiness, how to avoid food battles, etc. Any books you liked?
