Not as much as they hate cooking for their own children. The greater the number of children, the more true this is.

My friend's a chef and his wife is a picky eater and so are the kids. It's crazy the lengths he goes to to make sure that everyone will eat.

The way I was raised was that I had to eat everything that was given so I'm kinda blown away at this.

I was legit like 20 before I realized I could say I didn’t like something and avoid it being cooked for me in the first place.

This sounds like hell. Picky eaters drive me insane.

Picky eaters are, without exception, some combination of childish, self-absorbed, developmentally-stunted, and incurious. Oh, you "won't eat" some dish that literally hundreds of thousands of humans eat every day with your special, unique taste buds? Fuck outta here, kid.

Picky eaters hate this truth.

I've recently taken the attitude of "im making insert pretentious food you can eat that or sandwiches"
