Parents like to feed their kids. It makes us feel needed. But when the kid is a picky eater it can make every meal a battle of wills. In this podcast I talk with food writer Matthew Amster-Burton, author of Hungry Monkey: A food loving father’s quest to raise an adventurous eater (Houghton Mifflin 1st edition 2009) Matthew shares his love of food with his young daughter Iris, and together they learn that there are all kinds of wonderful things to experience when you open your mind and your mouth.
