Texas has been doing the opposite of Mexican since 1835.

Absolutely not.  I like it on mine but my Mexican wife thinks it’s kind of weird.  Save the shredded cheese for tacos.

I’m sorry, is it common to eat fajitas with cheese in Texas? Am I eating fajitas wrong?

The man shames the lady, and she is ex-communicated for being naughty.

It’s true! My extremely nice mom met my narcissistic dad at church!

Turns out it wasn’t the veggies, it was my family’s cooking.

I was a picky eater, with a specific hatred for cooked vegetables. Now I eat damn near anything. Things that contributed to the turnaround included:

I was a wildly picky eater as a kid. The first inroad to fixing it was when, at the start of high school, I decided I wanted to be the kind of person who ate sushi. You know - cool and metropolitan and whatnot. What cured it for good was going on a trip abroad a year or two later, and realizing I was going to miss out…

Oh, sure - I was the primary kickstarter for my husband (back when he was my boyfriend) to start eating more variety, because I’d grown up eating a ton of different foods. There are still things he’s not a big fan of, but I wouldn’t put him in “picky” territory anymore.

I wouldn’t call my mom a shitty cook, but just about every vegetable we ever had came out of a can. The only veggies we cooked from fresh were potatoes. So pretty much the only veggies I’d tolerate were like corn, potatoes, and peas. (I would also eat tomato sauce as long as there was no chunks or visible evidence of…

In my non parent experience, there are two kinds of picky eaters: people who will grow out of it with time and exposure to new foods, and people with serious aversions and/or sensory issues that will probably never change.

I have kids. I put dinner on the table. Didn’t keep unhealthy snacks in the house. McDonald’s was rare treat or an outing, not an ordinary meal. I tried to prepare meals I knew or thought they would enjoy, and didn’t taunt them with items I knew they’d dislike. They either ate or didn’t. No pressure. I figured they’d…

My mother was a disinterested cook. I took over the cooking for a lot of family meals when I was very young. I really hated meat growing up because for my parents meat had to be cooked TO DEATH...and buried. I was never able to break them from that, but I was able to “fix” many other things on our table. As an adult I…

My parents favorite line with my brother, “You don’t have to eat it. Next meal is breakfast.”

The reason there were no picky eaters in my family is because my younger brother would eat EVERYTHING (and still want more) if you didn’t grab it first.

Guy was 6'3" and 155 lbs and probably ate 5,000 calories/day.

I never tried to ‘cure’ the picky eaters I cared for, I just gave them some choices and let them decide to…

Cooking shows are what did it for me.

I don’t know if I was any pickier than average as a kid, but I became far less particular once I had to start *buying* my own groceries. A diet of cereal & sandwiches got boring real quick, and Mom was delighted to mail me photocopies of her recipe cards or pages from Joy of Cooking at college.

I was a picky eater, what fixed it was learning to cook for myself. Turns out I was less of a picky eater than it was my mom was/is a shitty cook.

My parents just ordered a variety of food in restaurants and pretended to be reluctant when we asked them to share.

Hard as Soltau may try to turn the ship, it’s hard to undo the damage of former CEO Ron Johnson, which WWD writes, “nearly destroyed the company.” Johnson sought to “modernize” JCP stores when he began in 2011, a plan that included, “[discontinuing] coupons and price promoting, and [shifting] to everyday low pricing.”…
