I think DS is a bit on the picky side but not horrible. Funny thing though, when I made all his food he would eat a ton of vegetables. Now that he's not eating purees anymore he won't eat his vegetables.
No. What would the correlation be? I made sure to expose her to a wide variety of fruits and veggies. She was completely off of purees by about 9 months anyway, so started eating most of whatever we were eating at the table.
She didn't start getting picky until her molars started coming in and it's a texture thing. She prefers crunchy things while she is cutting her molars.
DD eats pretty much anything too- and I just wondered if it was like that for a lot of people who made their own food, because maybe it tastes better and they don't get food aversions early on? Not sure, totally unscientific poll here.
I made all of Henry's food (still do) and no, he isnt picky at all. He loves meat, loves all vegetable and will choose broccoli over fruit. He doesnt get a lot of sugar, no juice, and I still buy plain yogurt and flavor it. I try and give him new things all the time and so far he doesnt love cottage cheese, but everything else he is okay with.

I made/make almost all of asher's food (and I'm a chef) and he hates most foods. Most of the time he won't even try things so I'd like to think he'd like it if he tried it but alas he refuses. Weirdo. /sigh

Not about taste, but I have noticed that he is picky about temperature. I pretty much have to give him food that is room temperature or straight out of the fridge.

No, she pretty much will eat anything.
