*resharing because it of course still applies* When your child sees you eating something it signals to them that the food could be safe for them to try too! Sampling your food (when it’s safe for your little one- avoid common choking hazards of course) helps them become more familiar with the foods that you eat regularly and allows them to figure out over time what they think of that food! if all goes well, there will definitely be some foods that you eat that will need to be shared forevermore!
