Green Beans and Snap Peas Have Sleepy Seeds

Source
I've caught Isaak taking the insides of his snap peas and beans out before. He picks them all out. It takes a long time for him to eat these particular veggies.

Tonight I finally learned why he does this.

Daddy said, "Isaak calls their insides 'sleepy seeds'. He doesn't like to eat them because they are like the sleepy seeds in his eyes."

I never knew this. Makes perfect sense now. Do I push him to eat what he thinks is gross or not? He's a really good eater otherwise. In fact I think he eats the seeds once they are out. He just doesn't like to eat them when they are in tack. It just takes a long time for him to eat the "sleepy seeds"!

  1. Thats funny. Sleepy seeds... I happen to love those sleepy seeds.

    I wonder if you would explain to him they are not the same as the sleepy seeds in his eyes if he would understand? Worth a try, but if he eats them anyway, then I don't see a problem.
