Predicting kids' likes and dislikes


So you think you have it all figured out. Your kid likes hot dogs, but not with ketchup or mustard on. Next day they want ketchup and mustard (aka the red and the yellow stuff). So, my son likes avocado. For dinner we grilled hot dogs and I made a veggie salad with tomatoes, cucumber and avocado (unbeknownst to kids also some onion). I ask him if he wants avocado. He says yes. Then he will not touch it. Conclusion: next time we make the same thing for dinner he'll eat the salad and refuse to touch the hot dog. Aargh.
