The root causes of selective eating vary among individuals as does the potential severity of pickiness around food.
The causes may be psychological, resulting from traumatic experiences such as choking or foodborne illness. Negative childhood memories, such as being forced to eat certain foods, can leave long-lasting negative effects. Plus, a lack of familiarity and exposure to foods can contribute to selective eating.
It’s possible that our food preferences begin before we are born via our mothers’ dietary patterns and the foods we are exposed to in utero. This exposure to foods continues through the consumption of breastmilk. Repeated exposure to foods, especially when there are positive social and cultural influences surrounding the foods, improves one’s chances of accepting foods.
Stress and anxiety about food can make it hard to learn how to accept and even enjoy new foods. Try creating a list of foods you don’t usually eat, but might be willing to try. These are not the foods that are totally detested or incredibly scary, but foods that are right outside the comfort zone. Maybe you identify as someone who hates vegetables but have eaten cucumber in the past with no problem. It’s possible you dislike beans but would be willing to give them another try in a soup or chili.
