My DS does not eat meat. The only meat he will tolerate is chicken nuggets (and we all know those are questionable )

As for fruit, he loves fruit. He would it all day long. Current favorites are watermelon, cantaloupe, mango, bananas and apples.

Re: Toddler moms - Can we talk about what kind of meat your DC will eat?

chicken, and only chicken.

HATES beef and pork. I don't cook chicken because it skeeves me out, so my makes him chick fingers. I also get him nuggets. At this stage, I don't evencare that he eats the nuggets, Im just glad he eats something.

ETA: DS loves fruits, pretty much any of them. Not a fan of cheese, unless it's grilled cheese. And he eats chicken daily, or every two days.

DD HATES meat. I've pretty much given up trying for awhile. As for fruit, she loves it and we have tried pretty much everything - apples, pears, bananas, grapes, blueberries, strawberries, peaches, melon, pineapple, kiwi....

DD will not eat meat. The only thing she will sometimes eat are chicken nuggets from Wendy's or McDonalds. Even these are hit or miss.

She LOVES fruit. I am bad and don't buy a lot of fresh fruit because my MIL feeds her all three meals a day during the week. So I generally give her applesauce, apples, bananas, fruit cups on the weekends. She will eat any and every fruit with every single meal if she could.

Re: Toddler moms - Can we talk about what kind of meat your DC will eat? And fruit?

Meat? What's meat?

DS WILL eat things that I barely consider meat, chicken nuggets and fish sticks. He used to eat salmon cakes and tuna fish also, but no more. He probably has these about 3 x a week. I give him other meat to try, grilled or sauteed chicken, meatballs, etc., but he usually doesn't eat any.

He does eat a lot of dairy and loves hummus, so these things help his overall protein intake.

Fruit he gets 3 x a day usually--2 meals and a snack most days. This often because he will not eat veggies of any kind. We keep giving them to him, but nada. Fruit he loves though--I think melon and blueberries are the only things he will not eat.

When/if he eats nuggets, how much or many will he eat?

Re: Toddler moms - Can we talk about what kind of meat your DC will eat? And fruit?

meat: turkey/chicken/beef chopped meat for meatloaf or meatballs, turkey/chicken/beef hotdogs, chicken legs, sweet italian sausage, chiken nuggets.turkey/ham/bologna (cold cuts

fish: salmon, any white fillet, salmon sticks, fish sticks, gefilte fish, crab, lobster

other protein: tofu, beans

fruit: anything really but he loves those canned manderines and has them as a snack every day after lunch.

i haven't given him steak yet bc i think he wouldn't like to chew it. other than that he'll try most things. i think we're going to try chinese chicken with broccoli (his fav veggie) next.

Re: Toddler moms - Can we talk about what kind of meat your DC will eat? And fruit?

chicken - preferably chicken cutlets
sliced turkey/ham/bologna (cold cuts)
hot dogs
steak (if cut up in tiny pieces)

Neither of them are a fan of chop meat, so they don't really eat meat balls, meat loaf, hamburger.

they eat all kinds of fruit - grapes, pears, blueberries, strawberries, apples, bananas, raisins, mangoes, oranges, etc.

DD will only eat chicken...roasted, nuggets, chicken fingers, hot dogs (if you consider that meat! LOL), cold cuts - ham and turkey

NO red meat, burgers, or anything of the "chopped meat" variety.

She eats all kinds of fruit. LOVES her fruit.

I don't eat red meat or pork really, so I never make that. DD will eat anything you put in front of her DS is a little more picky.
They will eat chicken - I give them whatever I make - roasted, chicken cutlets, teryiaki, etc, and also love fish sticks and panko breaded cod. They will eat ground turkey - they especially love turkey chili.
They love all fruits, I don't think I've ever given them a fruit they didn't eat. They eat a lot of bananas and applesauce. They are also big fans of avocados.

Re: Toddler moms - Can we talk about what kind of meat your DC will eat? And fruit?

DS will eat any meat that we eat....steak, pork, chicken, chop meat, etc.... I can't get him to eat fruit and it drives me nuts! I don't know how to get him to eat it. We've tried, apples, pears, bananas, oranges. Haven't tried the melons since the summer though. He'll eat stage 3 fruit and he'll eat the fruit pieces in yogurt, but not regular fruit. Any and all suggestions are welcome.

Re: Toddler moms - Can we talk about what kind of meat your DC will eat? And fruit?

Chicken
Turkey meatloaf
Pork-chop or tenderloin

My kids started getting fussy about certain meats and I think it was because they were bland I season everything I cook for them now

They pretty much love all fruits except apple and pear......

cherry-these are a PITA because I have to remove the pits but they love them
grapes-quartered or smaller if they are large
Mango
Orange
Bananna

Re: Toddler moms - Can we talk about what kind of meat your DC will eat? And fruit?

My DS eats chicken and beef (either hamburgers, meatballs, or meat loaf) mostly. I will also make him turkey burgers which he really likes...I've made him lamb also but, don't make this on a regular basis...He usually eats meat with lunch and dinner - sometimes just dinner.

As for fruit he eats it with breakfast and lunch. Whatever fruit we can get given the season - right now he eats apples, tangerines, strawberries, cantaloupe and grapes when I can find organic ones.

HTH!

Re: Toddler moms - Can we talk about what kind of meat your DC will eat? And fruit?

she eats all chicken, grilled, cutlets, chicken from soup, nuggets etc...red meat I've given her only in meatballs, as well as turkey meatballs...she loves meat.

She gives me a hard time with fruit, but eats bananas, blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, sometimes if I'm lucky a bit of an apple...
