An EyeOpening Investigation Into Why American Kids No Longer Eat Broadly And With GustoEnlightening ... A Rigorous And Persuasive Call For Change. Publishers Weekly, StarredUpends Our Assumptions About The Foods Children Can And Will Eat With Gusto.Bettina Elias Siegel, Author Of Kid Foodare Children Naturally Picky? It Sure Seems That Way. Yet, Amazingly, Pickiness Used To Be Almost Nonexistent. Well Into The 20Th Century, Americans Saw Children As Joyful Omnivores Who Were Naturally Curious And Eager To Eat. Of Course, This DoesnT Make Sense Today. DonT Kids Have Special Taste Buds? ArenT They Highly Sensitive To FoodS Texture And Color? ArenT Children Incapable Of Liking Adult Foods, And DonT Parents Risk Harming Kids Psychologically By Urging Them To Eat?But Americans In The Past DidnT Think Any Of Those Things. They Assumed That Children Could Enjoy The Same Foods As Adults, And Children Almost Always Did. They Loved Spicy Relishes, Vinegary Pickles, And Bitter Greens. They Spent Their Allowances On Raw Oysters And Looked Forward To Their Daily Coffee. So How Did Modern Kids Become Such Incredibly Narrow Eaters? The Story Is Fascinating And About Much More Than Rising Abundance. Picky Shows How Fussy Eating Came To Define ChildrenS Food And Reshape American Diets At Large. Maybe Most Importantly, It Explains How We Can Still Use The Tools That Parents Used In The Past To Raise Happy, Healthy, Wildly UnPicky Kids Today.

This book is full of interesting theories about why kids are so picky these days, but I felt it was a bit too academic in parts. Some sections dragged on, making it hard to keep my attention. Still, I did take away some useful tips for dealing with fussy eaters!

Not What I Expected
I was hoping for practical advice but found this more of a deep dive into historical trends. It’s well-researched, but I didn’t resonate with the content as much as I hoped. I think parents looking for quick fixes might feel let down.

Insightful and Thought-Provoking
As a parent, I found 'How American Children Became the Fussiest Eaters in History' to be incredibly enlightening. The author's insights into cultural factors shaping children's eating habits were eye-opening. My kids are picky, and this book helped me understand why — definitely worth the read!
