Some kids will eat anything and everything. And by some, I mean basically none. Any parent will attest to the fact that kids can be a nightmare when it comes to eating; most are incredibly picky and limit themselves to one or two things — usually chicken nuggets and chips, and nothing with any nutritional value. Mealtimes become a battle, usually ending up with kids going on hunger strikes and parents inevitably giving in and admitting defeat. One Japenese mom decided to combat this issue by turning her picky daughter's food into animated works of art to get her to eat healthily. Whether it's eggs in the shape of Winnie the Pooh or sushi snowmen, we're sure her daughter scoffs her mother's food down pretty quickly. Check out her incredible talent below.

Food is meant to be enjoyed, whether it's expensive Michelin-star standard or fast-food from McDonald's. Of course, the more expensive the food, the higher the cooking quality, standard, and presentation but sometimes fine dining restaurants take it a little too far. These pictures show what some Michelin star restaurants are doing when it comes to serving their food, and they prove that imagination doesn't have limitations. They say presentation is everything, but I'm not sure how appetizing some of these dishes look, even if they are ridiculously expensive. What do you think?

As if parenting wasn't hard enough, throw the world into lockdown and it's a whole different ballgame. Kids are cooped up inside with nowhere to let out their energy, which means tantrums are more likely to happen, especially when it comes to food. Children are picky eaters at the best of times. You know the drill... they ask you to make them something, and once it's ready after you've slaved away at it, they're no longer in the mood for it. Why? Who knows. My Kid Can't Eat This is an Instagram account that collects pictures of perfectly good food submitted by parents, along with the reasons their kids came up with for why it was not edible. All of them, of course, totally ridiculous. If they're not too triggering for you, take a look at some of our favorite ones below and see if you can relate!
