Do your children like to eat fruits and vegetables? I didn’t have many eating problems with the boys. I think that’s partly because every time I introduced a food to them I’d also try it right in front of them. As infants they both loved fruit. Who doesn’t love baby fruit? I had some myself right after surgery this year. I only encountered a few problems with vegetables with the boys as infants. If there was a vegetable they were resistant to I just mixed it with some fruit and that solved the problem. Well, Horizon has introduced a product called Little Blends that does the same thing. Little Blends from Horizon is an all-natural yogurt blend of fruits and vegetables. This product was created to help parents incorporate more nutritious foods and variety into their child’s diet.
About Little Blends – Little Blends is an all-natural yogurt, meaning it’s produced without added growth hormones, artificial colors, flavors or preservatives. It is also created without high fructose corn syrup. Each 4-ounce cup packs a daily value of 20 percent calcium, 25 percent protein, omega-3 DHA and probiotics.
Things changed a little as the boys grew. CJ has always and will still eat anything. TJ is a bit more picky – like me. One vegetable he has never liked is potatoes. I’ve had no luck getting him to eat potatoes in any form other than McDonald’s French fries. I haven’t found a way to hide potatoes yet. If you’ve got one I’d love to hear it. TwitterMoms and Horizon are having a fun contest where they’re asking folks to share their tips and ideas on how to incorporate more fruits and veggies into their child’s diet.

I may have to try this. Great idea.
Hey, my kids are grown up and they STILL don’t like veggies. Only luck I ever have is to just about puree them before cooking, and put them in meatloaf, etc. Otherwise? I gave up a long time ago. There’s only so many times you can eat cooked carrots…
Unlike some parents balanced meals are not a matter of choice. Healthy mains often returned for the next meal or snack sans dessert.
