Are you limited in what foods you can eat? I was considered a picky eater when I was growing up. I still habitually eat the same things over and over again.

I used to be a fussy eater, no onions, mushrooms and disliked carrots when I was younger, now I will try most things. I do eat the same thing for breakfast and lunch everyday.

I've always hated the term 'fussy eater'. Like some how not wanting to eat something that tastes vile to me makes my tastes less valid. Kids have more sensitive taste buds so it shouldn't be surprising that some things won't taste very good. I'm fortunate that I can eat spicier/stronger things now, but I still find onions vile.

Sorry for using the word fussy. I was stuck for the right word.

It's not your fault, it's the term commonly used.
