She does not like to eat any combo foods....weirdo! So I usually just separate her foods and she will usually eat it. If only she knew how delicious things tasted when combined into one bite. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-child-hate-stuff-mixed-together#post-2495927 Tue, 15 Mar 2016 20:12:47 +0000 autumnlove 2495927@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>it doesn't bother them anymore at 4&amp;3! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-child-hate-stuff-mixed-together#post-2495925 Tue, 15 Mar 2016 20:10:48 +0000 Tanjowen 2495925@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, and he's missing out on all the good stuff, or so I keep telling him. He refuses to touch Mac n cheese, spaghetti and even cake with icing on it. :shocked: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-child-hate-stuff-mixed-together#post-2495840 Tue, 15 Mar 2016 18:36:16 +0000 Corduroy 2495840@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>OMG - I was this kid until junior high. No pizza, no burritos, no sandwiches, no sauces, no condiments, no touching, no touching, no touching. Apologizes to you moms and my own mom.</p> <p>I'm a product developer in the food industry now so I think there is some productive aspect to my history of pickiness. :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-child-hate-stuff-mixed-together#post-2495838 Tue, 15 Mar 2016 18:35:00 +0000 Alba4 2495838@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ug, lately, yes! He wouldn't eat chicken until the broccoli stopped touching it. He is not into anything that resembles a casserole or combined meal. He also demands pits off of his watermelon. I figure it is just a picky stage, since he used to eat everything and anything. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-child-hate-stuff-mixed-together#post-2495581 Tue, 15 Mar 2016 14:58:13 +0000 NavyRN2012 2495581@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep. If we're having spaghetti, I have to put some of the meat to the side. Same with any casseroles. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-child-hate-stuff-mixed-together#post-2495579 Tue, 15 Mar 2016 14:56:48 +0000 Adira 2495579@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not at all! Xander LOVES "combo bites" where he gets a little bit of everything on his fork and eats them together. He saw Dada doing it and now that's how he prefers to eat all his food. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-child-hate-stuff-mixed-together#post-2495565 Tue, 15 Mar 2016 14:49:09 +0000 gingerbebe 2495565@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Well, its more an issue that DS will gravitate towards one piece of a meal over another, so if they are mixed together, he will throw aside anything that ISN'T what he wants to get to the "good stuff." If I separate them out, he can just access what he wants, eat all of it, signal for more, and then graze on a bite or two of something else as the meal goes along. And what he gravitates to on a given night is totally random! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-child-hate-stuff-mixed-together#post-2495543 Tue, 15 Mar 2016 14:42:16 +0000 Mamaof2 2495543@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When I make spaghetti and meatballs DS has a side of spaghetti and a side of meatballs - do NOT mix them! :meh: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-child-hate-stuff-mixed-together#post-2495531 Tue, 15 Mar 2016 14:39:05 +0000 BananaPancakes 2495531@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yesssss. But he has all sorts of food issues beyond that, so that's the least of my concern. His food therapist says it's really common in kids and especially if they have any sort of sensory disorder or disability. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-child-hate-stuff-mixed-together#post-2495509 Tue, 15 Mar 2016 14:34:12 +0000 mediagirl 2495509@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My child hates pasta meals that has meat, sauce, veggies and anything else mixed in. She likes her food separated nicely into protein, veggie, starch and fruit. We probably created this monster with divided plates. Last week I made salmon pasta and she didn't eat dinner. Tonight I am making chicken pasta. We'll see what happens. </p>
