He has his favorites at will not try different food. He actually physically gags when fruit especially strawberries/red fruit is near him or shown to him. I have tried close to 100 times to get him to try fruit. He cries and almost vomits. He does eat some veggies and eats meat no problem. He is a carb lover but not over weight or chunky. He is good shape. I also give hime vitamins to make upi for the fruit. He love liquids ie milk/water, and will drink instead of eat if he had a choice. Is the gagging "picky eating"? is there a way to help him with this strong aversion? Becky My son is a “picky eater”. He has his favorites at will not try different food.
