Toby thought he was a picky eater, but it turns out not so much: it hadn't occurred to him to try things he doesn't like when cooked another way. For instance, he hates quite a few vegetables when cooked by steamng or boiling, but we discovered that roasting them changes whatever compound it is that he hates and he'll eat them happily.

And he used to think he hated salads, but I pointed out that he likes romaine lettuce, mushrooms, red bell peppers, and green onions and that makes a salad right there. Put ranch or ginger dressing on it and he's happy as a clam. He just hates raw tomatoes and iceberg lettuce, which are on most restaurant salads around here.
