Winning the Food Fight

A child psychologist explains how to teach children to find pleasure in eating not only the foods they like, but also those that are good for them. Explains the negative attitudes children develop toward food and how to overcome these dietary aversions Shows how a child’s natural instinct to experiment can provide the inspiration needed to broaden his or her food tastes Translates the latest research in this field into practical suggestions for parents One of the most common problems faced by parents is how to inspire their children to taste a new food--to try just one bite! Natalie Rigal, a child psychologist who has extensively researched questions of taste, explains the often complex attitudes children bring with them to the dinner table and offers parents creative ways to get children to approach eating with the same curiosity and enthusiasm they display toward other activities. Using her own experiences as well as the latest research in the field, she shows that children’s tastes, which often manifest at a very young age, are connected to an intricate combination of family habits and social influences. She reveals why most children prefer sweet foods to salty ones, familiar foods to new ones, and why children often prefer the meals they share with their grandparents and friends over those with their parents and siblings--and what parents can do about this. Rigal explains that the aversion children express to most foods can be overcome by learning how to speak with them about what they are going to be eating--not just its flavor, but its consistency, appearance, and the sound it makes when eaten. She shows that encouraging a child’s natural instinct to experiment can provide the inspiration needed to try even those vegetables that are most universally loathed by children such as lima beans, broccoli, and brussels sprouts. Finding pleasure in eating has been shown to be the secret to “why French women don’t get fat.” It is also the secret gateway to getting your children to eat the nutritious foods they need.

Imus Ranch

A peek at the spectacular New Mexico cattle ranch where the author and talk-show husband Don Imus invite kids with cancer to spend a week living and working as cowboys in the Old West. The Imus Ranch is a 4,000 acre working cattle ranch nestled beneath a majestic mesa in the rolling hills of New Mexico. At different times throughout the year, the Imus Ranch hosts groups of children suffering from cancer or blood disorders, or who have lost brothers or sisters to SIDS. At the Imus Ranch, the kids work as ranch hands, rounding up Texas Longhorn cattle, herding and feeding sheep, and learning to ride horses and rope calves. Not only do these children enjoy adventure at the ranch, but they learn from the Imuses that nutritious foods are fundamental to a happy, healthy life. Lavishly illustrated and beautifully designed, this cookbook presents glorious full-color photographs of the ranch, the kids, and the food. The book includes more than 100 recipes for everything from simple soups and salads like Cowboy Chowder; Creamy Broccoli and Cheddar Cheese Soup; and Avocado, Raspberry, and Mango Salad, to main dishes and desserts the whole family can enjoy, such as I-Man Chimichangas, Thai Vegetable Stir Fry, All-out Brownies, and Raspberry-Apple Strudel. In addition to the delicious recipes, the book shows readers how important and how easy it is to incorporate healthier living into their everyday lives.

Teens Cook

Written by two teens who know what teens do and don’t know about cooking, Teens Cook, is an instructional cookbook that teaches young adults how to make great meals--and be confident and independent in the kitchen. Authors Megan and Jill Carle are teenage sisters with nothing much in common when it comes to food--except that they both know how to cook really well. One buys ingredients she likes and figures out what to make when she gets home; the other follows every recipe to the letter. One is a vegetarian who’s drawn to ethnic food; the other prefers all-American comfort food. Together, they’re a dynamic duo who have created and mastered more than 75 recipes for breakfasts, snacks, sides, family meals, dinners for one, and desserts. In Teens Cook, the Carle sisters also share their kitchen know-how on averting and fixing disasters, dealing with cookbook math (fractions and metrics--ugh!), deciphering culinary vocabulary (all those terms we kind of know, but not really), explaining chemistry (why and how stuff goes right and wrong in the kitchen), and avoiding accidents (can you say grease fire? oops!). For teens (and tweens) who are tired of eating what their parents decide to fix, Teens Cook offers foolproof advice for whipping up some tasty home-cooked meals of their own.
