I know veggies are important but I'm 42 and grew up eating no veggies but canned corn. Not salad or anything else (potatos yes but do they really count?). I'm healthy enough and haven't really suffered for it. I still don't eat many veggies: salad, carrots, broc. with cheese, tomatos and that's about it! Have you tried cold veggies - carrots, broc., califlower etc. with dip? Ranch dressing, yogurt, onion dip. Whatever might work. Just wanted you to know that it won't kill them if they take longer to eat some of these things. Buy the way, I didn't eat much fruit either. I do try to get my fd to eat all the good stuff though. So far she hasn't noticed that I don't join her for green beans or peas!
