My son (we are a vegetarian family) eats lots of raw fruit and vegetables. He will eat cooked peas and corn. Predictably he will eat practically anything sweet, He eats porridge and weetabix. He doesn't like cheese, potato, baked beans or vegetarian quorn products.He eats pasta, rice, eggs and even though vegetarian I do give him fish fingers. I have tried lentils, chickpeas, nuts all manner of foods with protein but he refuses to eat them only trying a tiny amount and declaring it as disgusting. He is very active and neither overweight or underweight. It is becoming an issue. He has free school dinners and is often reprimanded for not trying foods or eating enough of the first course. When we visit friends or he goes to parties etc it is difficult to accommodate his limited diet. Suggestions would be appreciated.
