Fussy eater

My 19m old refuses most new foods I offer him. Most of the time he won't even touch it, occasionally he will touch it to his mouth and then spit it out. He used to eat everything now barely anything. He eats a big quantity of food that he likes so he definitely eats enough it's just not good foods like veg etc. We waste so much food. Any suggestions or help would be appreciated I've all but given up!

I'm in the same boat! He will literally just eat snacks all day, it's driving me insane! But for some reason he will eat anything on my plate even if it's exactly the same😮‍💨 maybe try using normal plates/bowls and see if that helps?

Thanks, we have tried normal plates and cutlery but no luck. He sometimes tries things off my plate but he has food allergies so not so straightforward unfortunately & he generally spits it out still🤦🏼‍♀️. Eating together, new foods at nursery. We have tried so many things, was hoping he would be trying things by now as its been going on since he was 13months!

I have a very fussy eater too and I just keep offering. I make sure not to overload her plate and ensure she has at least one familiar food every meal. Sometimes she tried and other times she doesn’t 🤷🏼‍♀️

In the same boat here. He’s refused lunch today. Will happily snack but proper food is just an absolute no no. It’s so frustrating
