Food pocketing

[ToddlerMum312]

My 27 months old eats in a day ( example )
Breakfast: milk , yogurt and butter and jam toast
Snack pear and two sausages plus bread ( I know so random )
Lunch : small ham sandwich and few bites of carrots
Snack : half of banana
Dinner : bolognese pasta with courgettes

What I think it is nutritious for her, She eats

1. pasta pesto
2. Homemade bolognese
3. Courgette , spinach and cauliflower if disguised
4. Pasta with tuna or chickpeas
5. Carrots and sometimes tomatoes
6. Banana
7. Burger sandwich
8. Pasta with tomato and ricotta
9. Egg rice noodles with broccoli and nuts
10. Chicken tikka rice with peas

The reason I ask if this is picky eating it is because lately she turns her nose up when it comes to trying new food . She just licks it and says “ no I don’t want it “ . She has started pocketing some food ( she has always had a high palate and that’s where the food goes ) . I am absolutely devastated as she is possibly psd and no one of the health care providers want to refer her because she can eat normally and can speak in 3/4 word sentence with spontaneous language . So , for us , no OT or feeding therapy unless going private . I have tried HV , GP , private paediatrician.

She only pockets certain food like salmon or certain pasta .

I guess I have come here in the hope of finding some reassurance with this or a parent in a similar situation who can tell me it will pass .

Doesn't look like picky eating to me. She's a toddler!

She has a varied diet
nothing off about sausages and bread for a snack

Her diet sounds excellent. I don’t really understand the food pocketing? Is it because it gets stuck or is it deliberate? I have a high palate, as does at least one of my dc. I’ve never gotten food stuck, but maybe she is still developing her tongue control. Just check her mouth after meals if you are concerned about choking. Otherwise, the rest all sounds normal for her age and definitely doesn’t warrant intervention by an OT.
