[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 594440, member: 1514"] Well I must be the hard ass on the board because she would have not gotten a bit of sympathy from me. I use mushroom soup as a base for so many things and I have one who really isnt a mushroom fan. He hasnt complained yet. It doesnt have enough mushrooms to complain about, it just makes the food a bit creamy. I also have one who doesnt like onions but when I make a beef stew I use cream of mushroom and lipton onion soup mix and no one complains a bit. Thats what gives the stew the flavor. If they dont want to eat, there are jars of PBJ in the house. If they threw a fit like that, they wouldnt even get the PBJ. They certainly wouldnt get dessert or anything else good the rest of the evening. My boys were brought up in a house where you ate what was cooked unless you actually had an allergy or completely disliked something to the point of it being something we simply could do without. Like if we could make a dish without onions for a child such as liver and onions...well we wouldnt put onions on that childs plate. Cory hated cherries. We never made something with cherries for him. If we made cheese cakes, we made one with strawberry and one with cherries. We normally needed two to feed our crowd anyway. Jamie couldnt stand coconut. We just never used it or gave him candy with it in it. Not a big deal because not much is made with coconut as part of a meal. However with meals, what was put on their plates, they were expected to eat without a huge show. Eat it or go without till the next meal. Mine were great eaters and Keyana is also a great eater. She has eaten liver and onions, all sorts of deer meat, collard greens, most veggies, all kinds of things you wouldnt believe. [/QUOTE]
