Reddit reviews The Sneaky Chef: Simple Strategies for Hiding Healthy Foods in Kids' Favorite Meals

Powders like this are beneficial when you a parent dealing with a feeding disorder -or even picky eating and they literally gag/vomit if fed anything they don't want to eat like veggies. I run a nonprofit for special needs children and even though my boys were not like this there are many that are. There are also many ways to make food with veggies hidden in them some of the SLPs have shared and this is also shared in a book called The Sneaky Chef which has a number of recipes.

I don't believe the answer would automatically be yes or no. The other variable would be ingredients, purity of them, nutrient content, and where they are produced. While food is the best source of nutrients we aren't in the same world today we were decades ago. There is a rise in heavy metals and other contaminants in the soil, even in organic food. I eat a lot of veggies but supplement that with IQed a nutritional composition which is made from food ingredients so contains full meal and vitamin replacement if needed because in addition to contamination our soils today are depleted of nutrients in comparison to decades ago So the answer depends on what powder you are using and why.

>excessive pickiness around food can set you up for issues with weight

This feels so familiar.......

> saying "hey, I'm at my goal weight, time for dessert seven days a week!"

A diet should probably include six months to a whole year of weight maintenance so satiety hormones can get back on track.

So maintaining the weight would be part of the diet.

Maybe that works?

Along this vein of things, OP might also consider The Sneaky Chef: Simple Strategies for Hiding Healthy Foods in Kids' Favorite Meals - I bought this years ago for a friend with a very picky husband, and she had great success with it.

You should try the cookbooks Sneaky Chef or Deceptively Delicious.

I think it's true that while more exposure helps, seeing parents eat it helps, avoiding processed food helps, etc., sometimes kids are picky and irrational. And I'd rather be putting some vegetables in them than none at all.

The Sneaky Chef. Although I also advise putting your foot down. This is just a way to get even more healthy foods in her.

Haha. I have a book you might like: https://www.amazon.com/Sneaky-Chef-Strategies-Healthy-Favorite/dp/0762430753/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1496043529&sr=8-1&keywords=the+sneaky+chef

I liked the blueberries with my french toast even better. I'm still getting used to not using syrup, but it's still pretty good.

Oh I've just recently started doing Bing Rewards. I hope everything works out with it. :) Anyway I would LOVE this book. If you buy it used it would only cost $4 including shipping. :) Totally rad, man PS Have fun on your camping trip.

When you're right, you're right. How about this?

Dear Snookums,

I'm sorry that you don't like your vegetables, but don't feel bad about it. According to http://www.parenting.com/article/picky-eating "Nearly 40 percent of kids under 6 are picky eaters" and there is hope "But picky eating won't last forever - most kids grow out of it by age 8 or 9."

I've pasted below direct links to resources that are focused on getting past food aversions.

Finally, if I may paraphrase the great philosopher, Bubba.

"Anyway, like I was sayin', vegetable is the fruit of the sea. You can barbecue it, boil it, broil it, bake it, saute it. Dey's uh, vegetable-kabobs, vegetable creole, vegetable gumbo. Pan fried, deep fried, stir-fried. There's pineapple vegetable, lemon vegetable, coconut vegetable, pepper vegetable, vegetable soup, vegetable stew, vegetable salad, vegetable and potatoes, vegetable burger, vegetable sandwich. That- that's about it."

By the way.. all of these links were on the 1st page of Google search results.
