For parents of a child who eats five things
One new taste a day
There is nothing to talk anyone into. Your child decides how close to get to today's food — a look, a sniff, a hand on it — and every one of those steps goes into the diary.
The five-step ladder
Sitting near it counts. Smelling it counts. The child marks how far they got today, and every one of the five steps is a win.

How it works
Three steps, and the child does two of them.
- 1
You pick what they should try
Ten minutes, once. The calendar deals out one food a day and tells you ahead of time what to buy.

They open one card a day
They mark how far they got on a five-step ladder, from sitting near it to eating it. We ask for nothing more.

The album fills up
A shadow on the page turns into the food itself. After a month there is something to look back at.
What is on the shelves
Vegetables and fruit, bread and grains, dairy, meat and fish, soups, spices, sweet things, drinks. Ordinary shop food, sorted onto the shelves of the album.
and 358 more
What it costs
Nothing, for those who start now.
- The whole catalogue, three hundred foods and more
- Your own foods, the ones the catalogue hasn't got
- The album, the history and the statistics
- Sync across devices, with a backup on our server
Families who start now keep it free. If we ever charge, it will be for the people who come after, and we will say so long before the first bill.
Picky eating
Why "just one bite" can backfire
One bite sounds like a small request. At the table, it can become a big one.
Fifteen exposures, and what they mean
Where the number fifteen comes from, and why it does not belong on a calendar.
When picky eating needs a doctor
Weight, swallowing and a shrinking diet are reasons to put down the app and book an appointment.
