Emeline went through that phase and I finally went the way of my parents - you'l eat it when you're hungry. One meal gets made. That's it. If Em honestly tries it (at least 5 good sized bites) and doesn't like it, then she can have a pbj. Beyond that, she either eats or doesn't. But she does have to stay at the table and be nice and not play with her food until Joe and I are finished. Usually, she ends up eating.

OTOH, I am lucky in that she LOVES vegetables. So usually if she doesn't like the protein in the meal, she'll fill up on those and I feel less guilty.
