A matter of palatte and culinary conditioning. Not, of course, a budding sense of ethnocentrism or racism.<br /><br />But what do we know. The experts say otherwise. Which is frightening.Jay@Soobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12208597218366281778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37179942.post-75978679616173335092009-05-04T21:38:00.000-04:002009-05-04T21:38:00.000-04:00My kids were eating kimchee from the time they sta...My kids were eating kimchee from the time they started to teeth. By age 3, they had a definite appreciation for spicy foods and cared not for Shephard's pie. But I suppose if we were in the UK, that sort of obvious budding discrimination would have been deemed acceptable.GWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05814327154035433443noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37179942.post-66604056067332801232009-04-28T06:20:00.000-04:002009-04-28T06:20:00.000-04:00Re : "not much on haggis."

Hence why you have a lot of fussy eaters at that age. <br /><br />The idea that it could be a cultural based problem, e.g. racism, shows how backward-assed and science-denying lefties really are.
