Does your LO eat raw veggies?

jenifairies · February 2010

I thought they were on the no list, but last night DD helped herself to my mom's salad. lol She was just crunching through lettuce and cucumbers like it was nothing.

Also, last week we were out to dinner and she was having a fit trying to get the celery that came with DH's hot wings. I finally cut off a little piece for her, thinking she would spit it out and the allure would end. Nope, she loved it. Ate the rest of it (other than what was covered in hot sauce).

So what are your thoughts?

My only thoughts are that I'm totally jealous. The only veggies I can get DS to eat is cauliflower and spinach that is hidden in things.

DS eats raw fruit like apples. I don't think it's that different.

DS doesn't, but that's because he can't get the hang of really hard things and chewing.

If she's good at eating raw veggies/fruit and likes it, go for it!

DD loves sugar snap peas, cucumber, celery, tomatoes, broccolli...

She doesn't eat carrot raw yet though as she is just getting her final molars now and is getting the hang of the chewing thing, but soon enough.

I'm sorry.

DD is a pretty good eater in general, other than meat. But she'd eat fruit and cheese exclusively without complaint, I'm sure, if I let her. lol
