My Daughter Swears by Pizza and Cookies. Have I Failed as a Mom? 😂

My 4-year-old daughter basically believes her entire diet should be pizza and cookies. Like, if it’s not round or covered in chocolate chips, she’s out! :weary: I’ve tried everything, veggies, new foods, all the tricks but if it’s green, it’s like I’m offering her poison. Anyone else raising a mini food critic like this? Or did I already fail at this whole mom thing? :joy: Please, how do you get them to eat something without the side eye of betrayal?

Haha, omg SAME! My kid legit acts like broccoli is plotting her demise. I just gave up and put spinach in smoothies. She’ll never know.

You’re totally not failing, promise! My son was the same at that age, and I swear it’s just a phase. I started with a little “food fun” , I’d make faces on his plate using different foods. He’d eat the carrot nose from the face because it was part of a game. He’s 10 now and still not the biggest fan of greens, but he’ll at least try new things. I also found that involving him in cooking helped a lot. If they make it, they’re more likely to eat it.

THX for the tip! I might try that food face idea. I’ve also been sneaking some into her mac n cheese. A little spinach never hurt anyone, right? :joy:
