It's not a secret that children don't like to eat vegetables. But a new study led by Jennifer Orlet Fisher, director of the Family Eating Laboratory at Temple, has found that adding a small amount of dip to a serving of vegetables increased vegetable consumption by 80 percent. "We know that children can learn to like vegetables if they are offered frequently, without prodding and prompting," said Fisher. "Children with sensitivity to bitterness may avoid certain vegetables, but offering a low-fat dip could make it easier for those foods to become an accepted part of children's diets."
