Parents of picky eaters can vent their frustrations via a new Instagram account

What do you do when your child refuses, for the umpteenth time, to eat the food you’ve given to them?

Posting the rejected meal on Instagram with the hashtag #MyKidCantEatThis might be one way of dealing with it.

Sharing their mealtime meltdowns might not result in your children actually eating the food you lovingly prepared for them, but it will definitely help you see the funny side (maybe), which is always a bonus.

Featuring pictures of “inedible” apple skins, as well as an orange that can’t be eaten because of its “white strings of death”, parents of picky eaters are sure to find solace in the week-old Instagram account, My Kid Can’t Eat This.

Take a look for yourself at some of the elaborate excuses thought up by children who couldn’t possibly eat that.
