One thing we’ve always believed as parents is that food is more than just food—it’s an experience.
From the time our boys were little, we’ve had one simple rule: Take one bite. That’s it. If you don’t like it, you don’t have to finish it. We just ask that you give it a chance.
That one little rule has turned them into adventurous eaters. They’re always willing to try something new, and over the years they’ve discovered they love foods that most kids (and even a lot of adults) won’t touch—sushi, wagyu tartare, baked oysters, crawfish, frog legs, and so much more.
This week on our family trip, we took our two youngest boys to their first semi-fine dining experience. Watching them sip fancy mocktails and confidently order and try wagyu tartare, baked oysters, scallops, and French onion soup was one of my favorite parts of the trip. Their facial expressions were priceless!
As parents, we’re not just trying to raise kids who eat a variety of foods—we’re trying to raise kids who are curious, open-minded, and willing to step outside their comfort zone.
You never know… sometimes all it takes is one bite to discover your new favorite. ✨🍴
