    I was in the US Navy and you would be surprised at how many people will say things like that and eat at chili’s or whatever else when there is something perfectly good and new (to you) to try. Just never understood why some of the people I served with insulated themselves from seeing and experiencing new things.

      I feel like being a “picky eater” is something that a lot more people want to admit to. So, they get introduced to food they never experienced before, likely with novel tastes or textures that are not like what they eat at home.

      They treat kids for being picky eaters, but that generally requires parents to have the knowledge and finances to get their kid help.
