“Is there a way I can do it so she’ll eat it?”

It’s a question parents of picky eaters have been asking forever. Carrots and peas? Beet and kale? It’s a mystery what baby is going to like. One thing is clear; this little girl doesn’t love avocados.

“We decided to introduce avocados, don’t think she’s a fan,” the YouTube page says.

Mom and dad did their best to get the superfood down. Cheering, clapping, thinking outside the box:

“Should we mix it with something else, like bananas?” mom asks.

“I think that might just make it taste weird,” says dad.

“But it’s so good for their brains, I read online,” she says. We can vouch for some of the health benefits of avocados: the monounsaturated fats boost blood flow and brain function.

But if your baby resists avocados as much as this little girl, you have options. Get tips for making your own baby food here.
