I do have a couple of picky eaters and it's most embarrassing in public.Thanks to help from hubbie, we are currently expanding their food reportoir, though.

I am 16 and I once was a picky eater before my teen years. For some, I have found it to just be a phase and when teens mature they become more inclined to try new foods. For parents, however, it is important to be understanding towards your teens as they are just now figuring out not only what kinds of foods they like, but what type of person they want to be. I write for a blog (RadicalParenting.com) where teen’s give advice to parents and write about issues from the kid’s perspective. We have an article called Picky (Teen) Eaters that might add a different perspective to the mix, feel free to check it out:
