In response to "Happy Kid Food Poll - Parents/Aunts/Uncles - what are kids favorite food? (not treats - main dish food) -- nm" by JenBro

My niece's diet consists of something like 4 items.

hot dogs, cheese pizza, vanilla yogurt, and....edamame. ????

I'll be honest, this is why I'm probably going to be a hardass with N re: what he eats. Note: I'm not going to, say, make him eat stuff I know he despises once a month until he gags, but I feel like the reason my niece eats very little is because she's not made to eat more. "She doesn't like much." (Her parents don't make her try anything she doesn't want to, so therefore, that's all she eats! They offer her something new, she whines, they say "okay, never mind, here's a hot dog." Umm, no.)

I realize I might be singing a different tune in 3 years or so, but I hope not.
