JA's complaints to the chef

I made JA a very yummy, nutritious lunch today which consisted of meatless chicken nuggets, green beans, and pears. However, JA didn't agree with the yummy part. He ate the meatless chicken nuggets with no problems - he actually picked through his food to find the bites of chicken nuggets to eat first. He started on the pears when I noticed he hadn't touched his green beans. I put a bite of green beans in his mouth - he made a face. It was one of those 'yuck-what-did-you-just-put-in-my-mouth-and-how-do-I-get-it-out faces. At this point, I'm wondering if he's going to be like his daddy, who doesn't eat vegetables unless they are a carb (potatoes, corn, peas). I tried feeding him the green beans, and it went something like this:
I place a small piece of green beans in his mouth.
JA makes a face, puts his hand in his mouth to extract the green bean, and throws it over his shoulder.
Mommy says, "Green beans are yummy. Mommy likes them." I take a bite of green bean. JA smiles.
I try to give him another bite. He takes the green bean out of his mouth, but instead of tossing it over his shoulder, he tries to feed it to me.
I decline the offer, and he throws it in the floor.
I place another bite in his mouth. He makes a face, but doesn't take it out.
JA picks up a piece of green bean and puts it in my mouth. I notice he smells sweet - like pears :)
I chew up my bite and encourage him to do the same. He starts to fuss, and I decide to give it up for now. I fish out the bite that had been just sitting in his mouth for the last few minutes and start to clean him up. The whole time, I'm thinking, "Why doesn't JA like green beans anymore? Is it because Dale doesn't eat them? What if he never eats a green vegetable again? Maybe I should start adding cheese or sauces to the vegetables - or will that make them so unhealthy that there's no point in even eating them?" I finally finish cleaning him up and decide to give my thoughts a rest. I have to keep reminding myself that he's fine. He probably just didn't like the taste of reheated, left-over green beans...
