Is your child a “picky eater”?

According to Picky eating in children: causes and consequences, published in Nutrition Society Irish Section Meeting 2018,   “Picky eating is a common behaviour in early childhood. There is no universally accepted definition of picky eating, nor is there agreement on the best tool to identify it.”
