My sister dictated what was served at my parents table. My parents were fussy eaters to begin with and my mother only made about 10 things. So it was no big deal for them if my sister only wanted 5 of them. There were usually leftovers from a prior night if tonight’s meal wasn’t on her short list.
Today, my sister is 63 and still eats only those same 5 things. Apparently in large quantities.
