Bananas or Collards- Take a Guess!


This post was written by Daddy.  Thanks Peter!

For a toddler (who doesn’t yet toddle), Olivia is a very good eater and is willing to eat a wide variety of foods. 

Olivia will eat peaches, pears, mandarin oranges, mango, pineapple, strawberries, prunes, carrots, squash, yams, cranberries, green beans, peas, lentils, pinto beans, daikon radish, rutabaga, turnips, broccoli, cauliflower, rice, and rice chex.   Olivia will go crazy for collards and bonkers for bananas.  The girl loves her veggies and fruits!!!  

 When eating, Olivia has strong opinions about the order in which she eats her foods.  She insists on eating all of her favorite thing, then will eat all of her next favorite thing, etc.  As parents, we are pleased that in the end, she usually eats everything on her plate.  

Given she loves collards and bananas, we thought it would be fun to put both on her plate and she which one she ate first.  
What is your guess? 
 Check back tomorrow, for the answer.

First of all, she's too cute in that picture! And wow, I'm amazed with all the fruits and veggies she likes. I thought my boys were good eaters, but Olivia puts them to shame. :)

My vote on the collards vs. bananas ... collards, simply because I think maybe the color will catch her eye before the smell of the bananas. ;)
