    I am single and don’t have kids, have no real reason to watch these videos, but still watch to see what Nate eats. Lucy eats more fruits and veggies than a lot of adults! It’s impressive that she enjoys them so much!
    I know you always get tons of suggestions with Nate, but have you tried cutting the quesadillas into strips? A dietitian I follow found that certain foods she needed to cut different ways for her kids to eat (her example was that her daughter wouldn’t eat cucumber cut into rounds, but would if it was cut into sticks, so that she could bite into it like a carrot stick). I know people can be rude or mean, but many of us watch to see Nate succeed. We see how hard you work to get foods he will eat, and present it in a way that will make it (hopefully) work for him. Great job!

    My favorite things to eat are snacks. Id rather eat celery and carrots with a few slices of cheddar than any meal so maybe he just isnt into meals. (Im 29 and im just picky. Nothing really aids in my pickyness but its always been me. My mom says she worries when i have kids how i will make dinner bc as she says. "Celery is not a meal" lol.

    @MetalScrappinChick 6 років тому +1

    I watch a lot of different lunch videos. I get a lot of great ideas for things to look for at the store (which I love), but there are also things that I would not personally eat myself. But every person is different in their likes. And it does get really ridiculous that people have to give a "disclaimer" in their lunch videos! It's stupid that anyone feels the need to put someone else down for not doing the same thing that they themselves would do (or eat). If anyone doesn't like what you give to your family, they should just keep it to themselves or not watch if it irritates them that much lol 😁

    I thought I added a comment Maybe not maybe I forgot to hit send anyways just an idea as far as the milk goes we also struggle with getting our kids to eat food sometimes so one thing that's helped us out is for the milk we make Carnation Instant Breakfast that way if they don't eat their food they still get the nutrients in the vitamins from the milk as well as the additional stuff we've just added to it now with the Carnation Instant Breakfast just a thought take it or leave it no worries.

      I would never get him to eat it almost 4 hours past lunchtime or 7 hours after I made it. I just did it as a test to just see how soggy it would be. He has sensory issues and that may ruin him for quesadillas forever. Haha.
