If you've ever tried to feed a young child dinner more than one night in a row, then you know how I feel. Last week, my two-year-old loved broccoli and scarfed down three toddler-sized servings of it. Tonight, she took one look and howled her displeasure, while her sister -- who was formerly a broccoli-resister -- ate hers with pleasure.

A recent study of infants -- both breastfed and non-breastfed -- found that even a very young baby will eventually try and then enjoy a vegetable after repeated exposure to it. Researchers who led the study say this confirms what nutritionists have been saying for years. Keep trying, keep trying, keep trying.

Sage advice. Cauliflower is on the menu tomorrow night, wish me luck.
