$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Miki', '
')I don't think rigidity is a metter of religion as much as a personality trait. . Even babies differ in the degrees in which hey are willing to explore the world or take risks.
It is common knowledge that some children will try out foods with gusto and others are very rigid about what they will eat. This happens within families. When I was a kid, I would eat anything that my mother fixed, but my brother was very fastidious and picky. Now, all these years later, he is the rigid one. He tells me he can't stand politics anymore and only listens to sports talk whereas I have no problem with wildly divergent views from my own and can adapt what I think if I feel I should. I've seen this same pattern of eating behaviors with my own kids.

I should say that my mom did like to fix liver and onions and I never did like it, but I would eat it anyway. There is only one way to prepare liver, that I know of that tastes good, and that is in French pate.

Being flexible about what you are prepared to eat is a useful survival trait.

I presume fussy people have never been really hungry.
