A small miracle at our house tonight- Olivia voluntarily ate a banana. And liked it. She had to cut off the ends to make it more palatable, but she ate the whole thing.
I don't think Duncan has voluntarily eaten a fruit or vegetable in his life. He knows he has to routinely scarf down a minimal amount of produce to keep his mother happy, but he never enjoys it. He would honestly rather just be hungry than eat a tomato or a pepper. And fruit is no better.
If it was up to Duncan, I think every day for the rest of his life would consist of the following menu:
Breakfast- Reeses Puffs cereal with milk
Lunch -Peanut butter sandwich on white bread, no jam. Orange juice. Chips and a few Oreo cookies
Dinner- Hamburger, ketchup only, hold the pickles and onions Or cheese pizza. With rootbeer.
Dessert- Mint chocolate chip or cookies and cream ice cream.
Maybe I should let him do the meal planning around here for a week or two.
