The Green Bean Saga

My child does not like green beans. I'm writing this because I need to be embedding it into my brain that he just. doesn't. like them.  I got that in my head with peas (the spewed, regurgitated peas helped with that one).  Maybe it's because he'll eat a few bites of green beans, and then a few more if I mix them with milk and/or cereal.  Inevitably, after the few bites, sealed lips, and head turns...I get up and give him a different food, that I know he likes and he CHOWS down.  And EVERY-TIME I think, why am I trying to give him green beans when he CLEARLY demonstrates that they are not a food he wants to eat.

Okay Theo...you win...I will not try to give you any more green beans...at least not for a while. 

Wish I had captured his green bean face on camera- it's pretty clear that green beans = torture to Theo.
