Only eats noodles. Won’t touch vegetables. Squirms at the thought of meat. Subsists on air and milk. We know that it’s tough managing a picky eater. No worries, we’ve got a few new ideas, tips and tools to add to your picky eating arsenal. Because when they’re hungry enough they’ll eat anything—ha. As if.
| Call for Kefir To round out a less than stellar meal (maybe it was heavy on the carbs), we often turn to kefir, a kind of drinkable yogurt, as a post-meal top-up.
