Why does my toddler eat fruit but refuse vegetables and protein?
Little Lunches Expert Answer
Many toddlers gravitate toward fruit because it’s sweet and easy to chew. Keep offering small portions of vegetables and proteins alongside fruit, and let your child see you eating them too. Try pairing new foods with a familiar fruit and keep things low-pressure—repeated exposure can help build acceptance. For more personalized picky-eating help, try the AI chat.
