We don't cater. We make me meal and usually can count on the kids to eat at least one thing...the meat, or the starch or the veggie. We will allow seconds on the item(s) they like. We don't allow thirds unless they've attempted the the other items on their plate. On rare occasion we've allowed a child the have pbj or cereal if they've shunned the entire meal but that's really very rare.

Gluten free since Nov '11 after non-celiac gluten sensitive diagnosis. Have had great improvement or total elimination of: migraines, bloating/distention, heartburn, cystic acne, canker sores, bleeding gums, eczema on elbows, dry skin and scalp, muscle cramps, PMS, hair loss, heart palpitations, fatigue. I'm amazed.
