When does picky eating start?

I'm a FTM, LO is 7 months old.

Right now he loves pretty much anything I put in his mouth. Will he turn picky when he gets to be a toddler or little kid, or do picky eaters start out that way from the very beginning? Or if he's accepting of pretty much anything now, will that continue?

I know all kids are different, I'm just curious if there's a trend most kids usually follow with food pickiness.

Nora also ate everything I put in front of her when she was little. I'd say that changed around 19-20 months. She's still a pretty good eater, but I have to be creative with veggies and protein. She'll eat fruit, grains, and dairy all day long, though.

My son ate everything as a baby and became slighly more picky around 18 months.

My daughter has never been picky and she's 8. She'll eat a dz. raw oysters or a rack of lamb. I do wish she ate more of a variety of vegetables though. I think around 3 or 4 is when most of my friend's kids started being more picky.

DS used to eat everything. While he is still an OK eater, he is far pickier. It started around 20 months.

I had one picky eater and two that weren't. DS2 started being picky as soon as he started regular solid food. He stopped being picky maybe around 2ish.

It's starting now for us, although we've head eating issues since birth (couldn't breastfeed, didn't want purees, blah blah blah).  We can get no vegetables in him, and only recently some meat has become somewhat acceptable.  There are foods
