How picky were you as a child?


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.
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
Damn, I didn't have a right to be picky. If I complained about the food on the table i got the belt from dad and the face slap from mom.
Yeah, maybe it did. But i learned to appreciate what i have.

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.
I was so multi talented kid. I touched everything, doing everything. I see this when Iam finally grown up. Because I can do better on every aspect in life. Singing, dancing, Sports, drawing (this ended lol) 😂and I can learn ideas in short time and do them right. Yes Iam a multi talented guy.
I ate anything you put in front of me as a child but as a child, I didn't like mushrooms but I will eat them now.
Maybe I was picky, but it didn't matter. We had to eat what was on the table whether we liked it or not! lol Ew I member Braunschweiger sandwiches w/pickles.. Shake n bake pork chops yuck! Had to eat it tho..
Yeah. I've grown out of it somewhat.
I started eating more greens.
I have yet to eat avocados tho lol
I have specific food that I hate ie sweet corn and raisins and food that I didn't like because my family sucked at cooking it ie vegetables.
Super picky. I was so spoiled, my dad would literally make me a new dish or buy take out if I don’t like what’s being served…
More like how picky have I always been 😂 its gotten worse over time. Suuuuper picky. I hardly eat jack
VERY. I was terrible, I hated lunch time, I would spend literally hours sitting at the table trying to finish the food. But I loved breakfast and dinner.
With food not at all.
it was eat it or do not get fed,
we were poor. i ate everythimg my brothers and sisters liked first and as fast as i could, so that i could eat what they didn't like at my leasure
Not really all that picky. There were a few foods that I didn't like but no big deal.
I was always greedy as hell 😂so I wasn’t very picky and never had a problem eating fruit or vegetables, there are only like a couple of things I don’t like
I've never been very picky. I'll eat just about anything and I'm very tolerant of people and their opinions, even if I disagree with them.
As always for me "it depends" and "about what". I suppose I have always been picky about precision in language and communication!
Yes yes and no It was a weird kid I like my vegetables and drink plenty of water I don’t like certain taste and mushrooms and sour cream
Very picky. At one point I would only eat bacon. I must have put my parents through hell.
Grandma was a great cook.
So I had no opportunity to test my ''pickiness''.
Yes lol. I was picky about broccoli or eggs. Now I will pretty much eat them.
Wasn’t me being picky it was ARFID appearing at a young ass age 😀
If I remember correctly I was super picky when I was little. But grew out of it when I was around 10.
I was picky as a child and when I got older not so much
Not very, though I didn't like the side touching my potatoes, now I chuck it all on together. 🤣
I was and still am a picky eater because the only vegetables I'll eat are tomato's and corn
I pick out the vegetables from my salad rice and eat only the rice. Made my older ones mad.
Very lol it wasn’t till i was 4 before id even eat cake lol
REEAAAALYY bad. I would have eaten hamburgers 3 meals a day if it was up to me.
toddler me was "spit out normal water, only drink coconut water" level of picky
Being picky wasn’t an option otherwise we’d get beat or shoved down the stairs or locked in our room for a week
I was picky and got more picky, wish I wasn't, haha
not at all if I wanted to eat, what there was, was what there was
did not get much when I was a kid so glad for anything I got
I wouldn't even allow my foods to touch! Juicy foods or no Juicy foods! My foods DID NOT TOUCH!
I don't recall being picky at all, because we were too poor.
if was hungry I ate it anyways I hated fish cakes and squash
My food was really bland as a child but now, I love flavorful stuff
I was very not picky.
I wasn't , we ate what we were given or we went hungry. No arguments.
Everything is relative. I don't think I was picky at all. My parents might say differently though.
I was so picky, What about you?
I was pretty picky too.
Nice, like tell me more about you as a child
Ok. I was spoiled. I was afraid of the dark and I had this weird habit of screaming when I looked at scribbles. I scribbled in a bunch of notebooks. I was really strange.
I was a very picky eater. i still am.
I'm still a picky eater
