Yes, He WILL eat it!

We've been doing special diets since Kyle was 30 months old. We started with GFCF, soon went soy free and potato free - those were 2 of the 30+ items on his food "allergy" test. We did SCD for a year, but he developed a nut allergy and we went back to GFCFSF. After a few years we let up on the grains a bit. He eats a little organic oatmeal and wheat every week. We've settled into a mostly casein free, soy free, preservative free, artifical coloring free, artifical sweetner free, MSG and excito-toxin free very low sugar and I'm sure there are others. Last week at Autism Canada I was talking with moms and saying that Kyle still is SO stimmy - I think it is the yeast that we just cannot seem to kick. I also mentioned that my son is obsessed with french fries and potatoes. Yeah, I guess I have known they were the problem, but I just wanted someone else to tell me that too! Thanks Sonja and Cindy, you kicked me in the butt to remove the potatoes. Since he loves them SO much, I thought I would use them to bribe him to eat some new foods. I was stunned. This week he has eaten broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, avocado, mushrooms and oranges. I had gotten so used to him NOT eating vegetables, I just never offered them anymore - and he did eat them - without gagging! So learn from my mistake - your child WILL eat it...eventually...and "bribes" do help.
