I was always dumbfounded by picky eater kids when I was little. I ate everything. Mostly because if I didn’t someone else would, but I genuinely liked all food.
That is not normally the case. So much so that the Instagram account My Kid Can’t Eat This was born. Parents can share the ridiculous and creative reasons their funny kids absolutely refuse to eat something.
Most are truly absurd, and prime examples of kid logic, but a few I have to agree with. Like, yeah, those dumplings do have toes.

30 funniest picky eater kids:
#1
After watching the movie “Ratatouille” 658098764 times and asking me to make what they made 787628 times I spent hours scouring the internet for the exact same recipe from the movie and made it and now they can’t eat it because a rat didn’t make it
#2
Because although he loves onion rings, recently learned they contain onions
#3
It’s “too beautiful.” She’s crying actual tears of joy. She’s 4
#4
Because it’s broken. I can’t eat it because it’s his. So I guess we’re gonna have to put it in a raft, push it out to sea, and set it aflame using a flaming arrow Viking style. RIP Pringle. Enjoy Valhalla.
#5
Because it’s too cute. I actually had to freeze it so it could stay like this forever and he could visit it
#6
Because it “reminds me of Snow White.” I told her that if this apple really could make her sleep for several hours I would have cleaned the store out.
#7
Because if Honey Nut Cheerios taste like honey and Chocolate Cheerios taste like chocolate, this one must taste like the cast of Frozen and she doesn’t want to eat Elsa.
#8
Because she doesn’t like “all the nipples.” Me: You mean, seeds?” Her: No, NIPPLES.”
#9
Because by removing the cherry seeds, I turned them into olives
#10
Because the hairs disgust him. He’s fifteen. Fif. Teen
#11
Because he discovered halfway through that it isn’t an Oreo. I never said it was an Oreo. He’s crying. There is a crowd forming. Send help.
#12
Because the grapes are too spicy. SPICY
#13
Peanut butter and honey sandwich because the honey looks like a rabbit and she doesn’t want to wreck it. In her defense, it totally does.
#14
Because there are too many spoons in the bowl. (You’ll never, EVER, guess who put them there.)
#15
Because she asked for cheese and crackers, not crackers and cheese.
#16

Fresh carrot from the garden because it has legs
#22
Because she doesn’t like the “orange thing” on the bottom. It’s her fork…
