Listen Later

Is picky eating a part of your day to day? Are you seeing food anxiety at your dinner table? Boy, have we got some resources for you. Today Kate is introducing you to a mom who struggled with meal time so hard that she turned feeding her kids into an experiment… and it worked! 

Meet Jennifer Anderson! A mom, wife, registered dietitian, and the founder of Kids Eat in Color. When she was a new mom, she learned (as we all do) that feeding kids is tricky. Her first kid fell off the growth chart, and she realized how much effort can go into feeding a child. She took her angst and specialized in feeding children and picky eating. After months of research, she formulated an approach started making small, evidence-based tweaks at mealtimes hoping to end the food battles. She built Kids Eat In Color to be the resource she wished she had when searching for ways to feed her kids.
