Heh...my parents didn't allow us to be picky either. It's just that when they served up food we didn't like, it became a long drawn-out battle to get us to finish eating. Oh but my poor parents... so many of the things we kids were scared to eat were considered delicacies by my parents. "But it's lobster!" my dad would say, aiming a piece onto my plate, while I pouted. Many years later, I finally understood why my parents had been so insistent. Moreover, I felt bad because my mom went to quite a bit of effort cooking up great meals that I hadn't appreciated as a kid.
I had not known it was possible to be allergic to rice. That would require a significant overhaul of my diet.
