How to Approach Picky Eating

It can take 15 or more exposures to a food before it is accepted. Try serving it in different ways too – roasted, sautéed, raw (for things like veggies and fruit), shredded, cubed, etc. Flavors and textures of food change depending on how they are prepared. Just keep serving it! You can also introduce foods during non-mealtimes to take some of the pressure off from eating it. Talk about foods you see while prepping, grocery shopping, in a garden, on the counter. Let kids touch and play with food to get more familiar with it.
