Re: Parents, question.

Oh, this is a fun question. My parents were mostly not like this, with some exceptions that all occurred when I was very young but most likely fell into the "We bought a ton of this because it was on sale and we're poor so this is what we're eating" category. There was probably a better way to handle it, but they were also young and dumb at the time.

My grandmother was totally like this. Some of it was the ground-in, Depression-era "If it's on your plate, eat it and be grateful" attitude that she was raised with. Some of it was leftover '50s and '60s era parenting bullshit. "Children must eat [various things that children don't want to eat] for their health" was an actual thing that doctors and parenting books enforced for a while. But a lot of it was just... her needing to win a battle of wills with a 7-year-old, for whatever reason.
