Hey, I totally get it. I really do. Feeding a family every day is hard work and I fully admit to struggling with the same challenges a lot of you face every day. I worry about picky eating, I worry they don't get enough variety, and I totally cave on a regular basis and make separate meals at dinner time. I don't do it because I don't care enough. I care a lot. I just haven't figured out a better way to get them to eat the stuff I want to cook for dinner without crying and gagging at the dinner table. When I say I understand what you're going through, I really, really do.
I met recently for coffee with Dietitian Kristen Yarker of Vitamin K Nutrition Consulting. I had my littlest one in tow, and while he played Kristen and I had a good conversation about feeding kids and the ways she helps families overcome picky eating. Kristen herself is a former picky eater so she knows the issue both personally and professionally.
