I am 18 now, and my parents still hope that I'll grow out of it but it does not seem like it's going to happen. I try new things, but more often than not my palate shrinks rather than grows! I survive mainly off of chicken, pasta, and steak. I hate veggies (except carrots) but love most fruit. I have a huge sweet tooth and it takes a lot of willpower not to eat all the candy I can find. I hate pizza. I've probably met one other person who didn't like pizza, and no one who can't stand it like I can. Oh, and absolutely no sea food or coffee or tea or anything bitter. Surprisingly not a big French fry fan. Being a picky eater is so embarrassing, I always eat before parties but I still frustrate hosts. All my orders need to be plain, and I am always so grateful when restaurants will let me order off the kids menu. Adult food is gross, I am definitely a kid at heart
