Observing the dietary habits of a toddler is kinda eye opening from an intuitive eating perspective. Some days meat is awesome and on other days it's the worse thing in the world and he doesn't even want to try one bite.
I had the same experience with oysters. I started eating them on toasts with mustard for breakfast once a week. It was delicious and then, this weekend they tasted average. That tells me that my body has had enough of oysters for a little while longer.
Yes, listening to one's body FIRST - and we all need to do that. Watching how a toddler/child naturally behaves tells us this - that we have pretty much lost touch with Nature. I have seen toddlers deliberately used their hands to block their mouth when their mothers tried to feed them. Some even went as far as spitting out the food when forced fed.
