    Best way to sum it up:

    There was a four hour stand off at the dinner table where I refused to eat my vegetables and I was told I would not be allowed to leave the table until I did. My refusal to eat the green bastards, ended in me falling asleep at the table rather than give in.

    My brother took pity on me after this incident and taught me his patented secret of drinking all my milk in the paper cup, waiting until the parents back was turned, scooping said veg into my napkin and into the cup, then throwing the cup away in the trash. Literally, my hero.

      Lucky you were able to get away with that so easily because of him. I do hope you like veggies now though.

      I still don't love veggies on account of the whole childhood trauma bit, (not being serious), but since I cook a lot now as an adult, I find ways to make them so that I do occasionally eat a bit of veg here and there.

    Very picky child eater and I still am.
    When I was a young girl, playing outside, Mom would call me in for breakfast, then she'd call me in for lunch, then dinner.
    To me stopping me from playing every 4 or 5 hours to eat was a pain in the ass to me. Plus I didn't like food that much and still don't.

    I wasn't allowed to be picky. I either ate what my mom made, or I didn't eat. I also got pretty good at eating things I didn't like because if I went to a friends house I would forced myself to eat whatever their parents were making because I didn't want to be annoying lol

    I think I was pretty picky. As a child I didn’t eat very much and my parents took me to the doctor because of it. I didn’t like milk then and I still don’t but I loved yogurt. I also didn’t like the breading on chicken nuggets so I would peel it off. I hated the crust on my sandwhiches too.
