Kids can be so different can't they? Mine refuse to eat raw tomatoes (I really tried to encourage them despite the fact that I do not either). They also won't eat squash or mushrooms unless they are pureed. Amazingly, they will eat cabbage, kholrabi, sweet peppers, carrots, green beans, etc., but ONLY if grown from our garden. They refuse to eat any vegetables from the store claiming they "don't like vegetables". But when questioned about why they eat vegetables from our garden they tell me with a "duh" tone of voice that "our vegetables are different, Mommy." I think it's great that they like our garden vegetables, but it really limits us to seasons since I do not have enough growing space to grow large quantities to freeze and preserve I have gotten them to finally accept frozen peas...
