How about nuts? Roasted almonds are a Finderson house favorite.

He likes peanuts and eats those for a snack a few times a week.

Soup, it sounds like yours is like mine in that he's not oging to make things easy for you by munching on an apple or a carrot.

Do you need sweet snacks or salty? Or both? I remember when I first started reading about this stuff a long time ago, they said that the only chips you could buy at a regular store are regular Ruffles and regular Lays. They're just potatoes and sunflower oil and salt. The blue tostitos didn't exist back then, but I think that they're okay, too.

I'll see if I can think of anything else.

He is so frustrating. He used to be the best eater ever. Every fruit and vegetable he loved... Then around two and a half he stopped eating all the good foods he used to love. The only fruit he will eat (other than the ones that get blended up in his smoothies) are grapefruits. He's so weird.

He doesn't even like kid food anymore. He won't eat PB&J, mac and cheese or chicken nuggets. Today he took leftover raviolis in his lunch. Yesterday he took leftover baked potato with cheese. I have no clue what to put in tomorrow's lunch.

My grandmother always told me if I was hungry I would eat, and she did not allwo snakcing and she was serious about it. I learned to like stuff I didn't really like.

msg works (seriously) kind of like a mostly-benign form of meth.

Could'a sworn it was PCP.

I spent 10 minutes looking at all the labels in the salad dressing aisle trying to find a dip without msg. The dip I bought has hydrolyzed vegetable protein in it.

Some of the names MSG goes under
monopotassium glutamate
glutavene
glutacyl
glutamic acid
autolyzed yeast extract
calcium caseinate
sodium caseinate
E621 (E620-625 are all glutamates)
Ajinomoto, Ac'cent
Gourmet Powder
natural beef or chicken flavouring
hydrolyzed milk or plant protein
textured protein
seasonings
soy sauce
bouillon
broth
spices

natural beef or chicken flavouring

This strikes me as funny.

Natural flavoring=let's trick your brain

The worst part of MSG is that it does what the acronym means:

Makes Stuff (taste) Good
