    I did luck out my MIL raised a very unpicky eater, I learned to not be picky, and we are teaching our children to not be picky.

    Just curious what kind of things do you have to make at your house?

    That's some good shopping!

    My DH isn't picky either. That makes life soooo much easier.

    imagine;
    The best way to put it is like this, he will eat the following items;
    most meat, rice, potatoes, corn, grapes, grape jelly, bread, as long as it is not an artisian bread, american and swiss cheese, ketchup, plain pizza sauce, and speghettie (as long as I make the sauce)... Other than that, there is not much he will eat. I have become very creative over the past 25 yrs on making different combos out of the limited items he will eat good thing I love him
    I eat just about anything, there are very few things that I won't eat. Go figure

    Rolls that are filled with cabbage onion and beef.

    Sort of like a hot pocket

    They look like regular dinner rolls but have the filling in it.
