This is the sort of thing that sounds good at first, but when you think about it, it means children are being trained to only eat vegetables when accompanied by some kind of condiment - which only adds unnecessary elements to their diet. Personally - as a parent myself - I find most children eat what is offered, when it is made clear to them that it is eat this or go without. No child will willingly starve themselves. But when parents get drawn into the game of trying to make perfectly good food more palatable to their children, they are really just responding to manipulation by their children. Thereby setting the scene for future unhealthy eating habits in the same children.
