I have reasons of my own for interests in this topic too. I personally believe that different people have different sensitivities of taste and smell.
Thank you! I agree! And texture too.
I have one son that gradually became pickier and pickier as he got older...would eat anything as a baby but the older he got, the less things he would eat, much to my dismay. He would even try to eat the stuff, because he knew it worried me but would end up barfing up everything else he ate. He actually WANTS to eat watermelon so bad and just can’t.
My younger son eats anything. Rutabaga, squash, spinach, beets, you name it.
I seriously believe if I tried to force my older son to eat the things that make him vomit, he would die before he would. Or grow up with some kind of eating disorder.
He is growing on basically meats and carbs. I just give him a multivitamin and don’t worry about it.
