My daughter is 15 months old, and she loves mac n cheese. She is also likes hot dogs, potatos, and green beans. I think that her most favorite is mac n cheese, and french fries. We haven't found anything that she doesn't like yet, which is a relieve to me, since her father is really picky about what he eats. So what are your childs favorite foods to eat?

My children are not all that picky. My oldest son does not like mustard or mayonaise but loves ketchup. My youngest son loves mustard and mayonaise but wont eat katchup. I have yet to find a vegetable that they wont eat and I was shocked when my 1 and 2 year old ate salad on their own. It was my salad and they took it from me to eat. My oldest son loves dark meat on chicken and turkey and my youngest son will only eat white meat. That is as far as the pickiness goes. I am so thankful they eat most things. I am very thankful they love there veggies.

My daughter will be 6 in July. Currently her favorite is PEANUT BUTTER. Which has been really hard with the salmonella scare. She eats it on bread, and just off a spoon. She likes it on celery. It is a staple for her.

My son is the picky eater. He always wants to eat pizza, french fries, chicken nuggets, and junk food. He does not like too many vegetables. Pizza is probably his favorite food. My daughter on the other hand will eat pretty much anything. When she was your daughters age her favorite thing was sweet potatoes and squash. Now she does eat some junk too, but one thing she really loves is tomatoes.

Thank goodness my son is not a picky eater (he got it from me) and he likes eating veggies. But his favorite is eggs, however I cook (boiled, fried, scrambled) he just loves it. Even when we go out sometime to eat out he'll look for eggs.

My daughter loved sweet potatoes. That was number one on the list. I think it still is! She liked mac and cheese but I only fed that to her occasionally as it would cause the plumbing to back up (so to speak)! Once that would happen, she would have a runny nose and be sneezing all the time. It just wasn't worth the hassle.

I just had this discussion with my mom today. My son is 2 years old and he ate 3 bowls of oatmeal for breakfast. He usually eats more for meals then his two older step brothers. I was just shocked today when he won't stop eating, then when the bowl was empty he came up to me and handed me the bowl and just stared. After the third refill i had to cut him off.

There are some clear favorites here. I don't think I could rank between them, because our 4 year old loves them probably about the same. He will eat anytime, pizza (one of the first words he ever learned how to say after mommy and daddy), peanut butter sandwiches (no jelly, please), and mac and cheese. Pizza use to be his main goto food, but he has since expanded his tastes to include the others. He will eat other things, he's not too picky, but you did ask for favorites.
