I used to babysit a lot, and I was kind of famous for getting kids to try foods they normally wouldn't. I was never pushy about it, just included them in the shopping/harvesting/cooking process, and asked them to try a little bite of everything, and to remember that your tastebuds change as you age, so keep on trying stuff.

This backfired on me occasionally though. Once as an adventure, we went to a Japanese restaurant, and I ordered the kiddos some Katsu (who doesn't love something fried with dippy sauce), and got myself a plate of sushi rolls and sashimi. Well, since I always asked them to try one bite of something new, they looked at me expectantly, so I let them try a bit of each. Turns out they were all in for sushi, and those little nerds ate most of my plate, and then they always wanted to go. Kids, I don't have sushi money every day!

@kelvin0mql @RickiTarr my first experience with sushi was 1985'ish. Employer funded office lunch at a very posh place back of covent garden. I was 18/19.

Group of slightly rowdy blokes knowing what they wanted (despite not having a clue).

Me I politely the asked japanese server what he recommended as I had no clue. Rest of the table got what they asked for, I kept getting taster plates of all kinds of things, and a topped up saki jug.

Fave was the saki marinated salmon....
