My oldest daughter (8) is very much like this. She is extremely picky and sensitive to smells. (*I* still cannot even bring myself to try sauerkraut because it smells so nasty, so on one hand, I can understand where she is coming from. I also know--the hard way--that at some point she's going to get tired of being so picky.) Yet, she will try and enjoy all kinds of really strong cheeses! Goat cheese is a big favorite around here....spread on baguettes and topped with a little pesto. <br /><br />Thankfully, my twins are NOT picky eaters. Well, sometimes they pretend to be (which I think they get from their sister), but mostly they'll eat anything.Queen Mommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17867545054654662913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5032759991610706354.post-69074472716715283472008-02-07T08:45:00.000-06:002008-02-07T08:45:00.000-06:00It sounds like you have a little gourmand...(is th...It sounds like you have a little gourmand...(is that the right word?) Good for you for encouraging his tastes!<BR/><BR/>My son and daughter are very similar--very sensitive to smell, texture, etc. I guess my DH and I are too, come to think of it. I was a very picky eater and now consider myself a "super taster". Did you hear the story about "super tasters" on NPR? It was a while back, and I remember thinking, "that's me!".<BR/><BR/>I don't know if my son would eat the stinky cheeses or not, but he's pretty adventurous. In fact, we were just talking to him this morning about making a great chef becuase of his great nose. He wouldn't eat the oatmeal I made for him, which I had soaked in buttermilk overnight as Sally Fallon says to do, because it smelled funny. Very perceptive! I'm hoping he'll try it soon, though because it does taste great.Lisa Zahnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17491596171533559615noreply@blogger.com
