Meet Rino

One of my girlfriends showed me this video which “reminded her of me…one day.” I couldn’t believe I spent 10 minutes watching a little girl…eats.

Meet Rino, the most adorable girl who really loves food, and ecstatically devour it with total delight.

Rino is a Japanese girl whose mom cooks dishes from all over the world and video record her daughter eats them for the first time. (It would make such darling childhood memory, don’t you think?)

Beyond a cute little girl making funny faces and noises about her food, note that Rino eats everything. LITERALLY. Well, maybe not, but Rino is not a picky eater…that’s fair to say. And what I see these days, from my little cousins and friends’ kids, the parents struggle to get any type of food in their mouth. The same goes to some adults. I know of people who would only eat pasta and fried rice or seafood.

Is this a cultural problem?

As a parent, what do you do to train them not to be picky on food? This reminds me of a book calls French Kids Eat Everything, which I have yet to read and must to read before I have kids of my own.

Here is a little Japanese girl slurping shrimp and devouring lettuce as they are like French fries.
