Nick Will Not Eat Vegetables!

In the past year I have only seen Nick eat
vegetables ONE time (this is not an
exaggeration). It was lettuce in a taco at
Taco Bell. The only resemblance to a
vegetable that he eats regularly is tomato
sauce on a pizza. I'm really worried about
his health.
I know I can't MAKE him eat veggies, but
how can I convince him how terrible this
is for his health? Oh, and he doesn't eat
fruits, either. Maybe an occasional apple.
Helppppp!

That is pretty bad! I wouldn't have the
slighest idea how to get someone to eat
them. Does he at least take vits?

i'm not sure. when you cook dinner just
add veg to it. and have a fruit bowl so
when he's hungry you can encourage him to
snack on them

No! He won't. He's impossible :[ I'm so
scared for him. I keep telling him he can
get colon cancer or very bad problems, but
he denies it. It drives me INSANE. What
kind of example is this going to set for
our kids? Ugh...he says it's a texture
thing, and a taste thing, so I don't know.

When I cook dinner, it's for myself. We
buy our separate foods. His is usually
frozen pizza and diet pepsi. I don't
understand how he even stays at a normal
weight.

But vegetables are good.
Will he not eat them on his pizza? We
make home made pizza with like 5 different
veggies on it and it`s delicious!

Me, my little brother, and my aunt all
have the same problem.....I HATE
VEGGIES!!! ugh they make me sick. The only
thing i like is green beans and thats how
my mom cooks them (in bacon greese), and
broccoli but only the fuzzy part and it
has to have cheese on it.
every time any other vegtable hits our
mouths...its come right back up. I dont
know what it is....i guess my body wasnt
made for them, and im not overweight im
actually underweight for my height.
Im almost 5'8 and I weigh 120 pounds.

I am a most-of-the-time vegetarian, so
vegetables and I are quite friendly. The
only ones I don't like are olives,
radishes, onions, and mushrooms. First
three are flavor, and somehow fungi just
isn't appealing.
Have you looked into getting Jessica (or
is it Jennifer?) Seinfeld's cookbook,
Deceptively Delicious (or is it
Deliciously Deceptive?)? Basically it
tells you how to hide veggies in otherwise
veggieless foods. IE: pureed butternut
squash in mac and cheese, or
pureed/liquefied spinach in brownies. It's
meant to fool small children, but Nick is
acting like a small child with this
vegetable thing.
V8, maybe? Or you could at least smack him
on the head like they do in the V8
commercials!

i doubt your body wasn't made for it.
Every body needs them to ensure a healthy
diet. I think it is simply in your head
that you do not like them.
