Question

My son hates vegetables. What can I mix them with in order for him to start getting used to eating them?

Answer

Thank you for your question.

 

I know how frustrating it can be when you have a little one who won't eat the foods you want him to eat. These are very often vegetables. It's best to avoid mixing disliked foods with liked foods, as this can confuse your baby and also make them dislike all those foods offered, including the one they used to like.

 

When you're dealing with a fussy eater, do persevere by offering the food on at least 8 separate occasions, as studies show that it may take many offerings of a disliked food before it is accepted.
