Or tahini. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-get-veggies-into-a-former-veggie-lover-turned-veggie-hater#post-1682720 Thu, 05 Jun 2014 18:39:35 +0000 prettylizy 1682720@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We went through (are still going through?) this too. I chalk it up to being 2, do my best to offer them all the time and don't start a fight over it. From what I can tell, one day she LOVES carrots, the next day carrots are "Yucky!".<br /> We also use a lot of hummus to get her to eat things. She loves hummus. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-get-veggies-into-a-former-veggie-lover-turned-veggie-hater#post-1682718 Thu, 05 Jun 2014 18:39:21 +0000 mediagirl 1682718@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Arden: very recently - about 22 months. She will still eat them, but only if she is in the mood.</p> <p>I do try the dipping thing like has been suggested. There is something about dips and toddlers.... :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-get-veggies-into-a-former-veggie-lover-turned-veggie-hater#post-1682648 Thu, 05 Jun 2014 18:18:16 +0000 Arden 1682648@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When did she turn into a veggie hater? I'm so scared of this. Vi loves her veggies now but I'm wondering if it's a temporary blessing... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-get-veggies-into-a-former-veggie-lover-turned-veggie-hater#post-1682628 Thu, 05 Jun 2014 18:11:17 +0000 mediagirl 1682628@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Dandelion: hahaha. Yes. That is how Mom got us to eat them when we were kids. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-get-veggies-into-a-former-veggie-lover-turned-veggie-hater#post-1682626 Thu, 05 Jun 2014 18:10:17 +0000 Dandelion 1682626@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Cheese. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-get-veggies-into-a-former-veggie-lover-turned-veggie-hater#post-1682623 Thu, 05 Jun 2014 18:08:58 +0000 sandy 1682623@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jump Rope: that episode was definitely a hit! "You have to try new food cuz it might taste good!" LO ate cherry tomatoes and bell peppers after watching that episode</p> <p>@mediagirl: same here - LO used to love all veggies and around 2 became pickier and pickier. I just try new ones - she's into pickles and olives of any kind (black ones and Spanish ones but also will eat kalamata olives). Sometimes we talk about how the bunny eats carrots and she will eat them. I think just keep offering a variety of them bc one day she'll refuse but two weeks later she will eat a good amount. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-get-veggies-into-a-former-veggie-lover-turned-veggie-hater#post-1682602 Thu, 05 Jun 2014 18:02:20 +0000 sorrycharlie 1682602@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>ugh. same issue here. she isn't old enough to understand peer pressure though :(</p> <p>honestly, she ate a ton of carrots last night because she had the option of ketchup on her plate. (she didn't dip though! shocked)</p> <p>tonight, two platefuls of food all over my dining room floor. I'm trying not to stress over it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-get-veggies-into-a-former-veggie-lover-turned-veggie-hater#post-1682015 Thu, 05 Jun 2014 14:28:15 +0000 mrsjazz 1682015@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just keep trying different ways of preparing them and/or hide them. LO used to eat anything green but now she won't eat leafy greens. She will eat kale if I make kale chips. I make a batch of chicken nuggets and turkey meatballs for her lunches, so I usually chop up spinach or kale into them and that works. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-get-veggies-into-a-former-veggie-lover-turned-veggie-hater#post-1680065 Thu, 05 Jun 2014 08:05:20 +0000 septca 1680065@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jump Rope: brilliant!!</p> <p>We do a lot of green smoothies and mini egg-vegetable bakes. My issue is hiding dairy - both of these work well for that, too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-get-veggies-into-a-former-veggie-lover-turned-veggie-hater#post-1680063 Thu, 05 Jun 2014 08:04:23 +0000 winniebee 1680063@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just keep offering cooked and raw. And don't pressure He apparently likes ranch dressing on them to dip :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-get-veggies-into-a-former-veggie-lover-turned-veggie-hater#post-1680057 Thu, 05 Jun 2014 08:02:40 +0000 Mrs. Jump Rope 1680057@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DANIEL TIGER.</p> <p>That episode where the kids visit a local garden and get to pick their own veggies then try them.</p> <p>Along with the song from that episode.... I sang it last night and got Chloe to try tomatoes! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-get-veggies-into-a-former-veggie-lover-turned-veggie-hater#post-1680049 Thu, 05 Jun 2014 08:01:09 +0000 mediagirl 1680049@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Suggestions? M used to love veggies. Now she ignores them. :/ </p>
