As a picky eater myself (at very big one at that). Christmas dinner is the least of my worries..
its what I'm gunna be given tomorrow for lunch and dinner that scares me..
How do you deal with picky eaters, particularly adults at Christmas dinners?
If it's dietary for health reasons, I'll oblige. If they are just ornery and picky about their food, I'll tell them to bring their own food.
It might be a bit different in Oz because Christmas is in the middle of summer and we tend to eat salads and cold meats.
I just lay out a selection of salads, meats and sweets, and everybody serves themselves according to their own particular tastes.
Just make a variety of foods. There should be something they can eat. In my family we have diabetics, vegetarians, and I don't eat red meat. So there is always a good selection of veggies. If red meat is served whoever is hosting aften makes a chicken breast for me, but I don't need them too. I can eat veggies and be fine.
If they're adults and don't like what is being prepared/served ... They should bring their own dish, or keep their mouth shut.
If they're kids ... They can eat it, or go without.
Well just try to have a variety of foods that you think everyone would at least something from. :)
One of my sisters Toni has a fix for that, she says eat it or wear she will throw the food at you so don't complain...
