jam sandwiches
 
a 15 year old teen became so interested in eating jam sandwiches that its the only type of food he ate.

Quote:

So while his family sit down to nutritious meals, he has sandwiches of white sliced bread and margarine with strawberry, raspberry or black-currant jam (without bits).
the boy also drinks more than a litre of milk per day

Quote:

He supplements these with a bowl of chocolate cereal and a slice of chocolate cake every day.
he weighs in at 68.9kg a healthy weight.

Quote:

However, for his long-term health, he was advised to take vitamin supplements and see a psychologist to "encourage variety in his diet".

"We believe his problem could be due to a fear of food, probably going back to when... as a baby he gagged on some lumps," a London children's hospital spokesman said.

But only with cheese and, possibly, a lettuce leaf.

My weakness is for peanuts, I have cut out the salted ones, to reduce my salt intake, but munch my way through bags & bags of 'roasted monkey nuts' :erm:

Well I had to give my daughter nothing but cheese spread sandwiches at teatime for 3 years starting from when she was 3.

She wouldn't eat anything green(she hated all veggies and she still hasn't improved much)even herbs on the tops of pizzas.

However I didn't worry as I was just as fussy as a kid myself.I grew out of it eventually as has she(apart from eating greens).

Incog.

Well, I saw the thread title and thought kronas' ID had been hijacked by Peachey :D

For the record, my favourite food of all time is ... errr ... hang on, so much to choose from. Mrs towny (Mrs Chris T? :erm: ) is hanging over my shoulder saying she doesn't know either so I guess there's no hope of me thinking of any one thing.

After much thought, probably chicken balti, but I wouldn't like to live on it for the rest of my life. There's too many nice things to eat. :drool:

ewww greens make me :sick: anything like cabbage, brussels etc when cooked make me ill. Strange thing is i can eat them raw with no problems.

Its not a mental thing either. I've eaten stir fry's and 5 mins later :sick: and then read on the ingredients it has cabbage in it.
