To not go out to buy dinner for DS

DS is 16. He's a very fussy eater and I've spent the day cooking dinner (something he likes). He then told me he doesn't want it and wants pasta. I told him he needed to have what we are having as we don't have pasta and if he wants pasta he should go to the shops and buy some for himself, hes refused and expects me to go and buy some. I've said no, AIBU?

At 16, he ought to have some manners. If he really wants pasta, though, he should go out and get some and cook it for himself.

It was 7 months ago.

I did not search, so would have been suggested.. not sure how exactly I found it.

Entitled. Why sound you allow this? And just not say NO! ?

I suspect he would have done so by now ... it's over 6 months old!!

If he likes the food you made but just would prefer pasta today he is just making a fuss. I'd tell him eat what I cooked or then he makes himself a sandwich or heats up a tin of soup.
