...what do you do??
J hates fruits and veggies and will not eat any raw. I can get him to drink a smoothie, mix in yogurt, filled pasta, bake in muffins, put on pizza but he will not eat them otherwise.
The only veggies he will eat is edamame and corn on the cob. He hates all fruit except banana.
What do you do?
The worst is we're vegetarians!

M goes through picky stages and non picky stages. Luckily she still loves pouches so if she's not being a great eater I make sure to get pouches in her as a serving of fruits and veggies.
How does J do at school? Even when M is going through a picky stage at home she always eats everything at school.... peer pressure is an amazing thing.

Just wanted you to know we are in the same boat. LO will eat bananas, but no other fruit/veggie whole.

@MamaMoose: he only goes a few times a week, as needed, and it's only from 2-5pm. Sometimes he does eat with the other kids and sometimes he does not. He's not really there long enough to get hungry though, unless he's missed a meal at home.

@MsLipGloss: so frustrating! especially when we're out at a restaurant and my friends & family are horrified that he doesn't want anything except a french fry and/or bread.

A goes through these picky stages, we just keep offering things and lately she has been trying (and liking) way more! I think it's usually just a phase with toddlers and as long as they are eating it in things that's still awesome!

Aahh, I'm right there with you. My son will only eat blueberries! Not a single veggie! The only thing I do is give him pouches to get other fruits and veggies. As a whole he is a terrible eater. We offer food all the time but I can't even remember the last time he tried something new!

@MsLipGloss: I guess R is much more independant than M!! That will serve her well down the road, but come on girlfriend, eat a carrot for your mama!

T is so hit or miss with veggies and fruit. He will eat spinach and vegetables out of soup but that's pretty much it. Sometimes raw carrots. Bananas or apples and sometimes strawberries or raspberries. I just keep offering and hope that one day he will just start eating them.

I paniced and took my son to a nutritionist. She was able to talk me off the ledge of dispair by giving me reasonable guidelines to follow for daily and weekly intake.
