For parents who dread the words "I'm not eating that"

Understand How Your Child Eats — And Finally Know What to Put in the Lunch Box

A practitioner-built guide that identifies your child's eating profile and gives you the exact strategies, 40+ lunch box ideas, and recipes that actually work for it — grounded in real infant-feeding research, not guesswork.

If mealtimes feel harder than they should, you're not doing anything wrong — and neither is your child.

Every child who's ever been called "a fussy eater" is actually doing something quite specific and quite logical — even when it doesn't look that way from across the dinner table. How your child eats has never been about the child alone. It's shaped by the relationship between their own appetite and how they've been fed from the very beginning.

This guide walks you through four common eating profiles, what's really driving each one, and what to do about it — including the part every parent actually wants help with: what on earth goes in the lunch box.

Built on Real Research, Not Trends

This guide is written by Jodi Duval, MHumNut, BHSc (Nat), ANTA — Founder & Principal Naturopath at Revital Health, and CEO of HOMeHOPe Australia.

Jodi is co-author of "Understanding dyadic phenotypes of eating and feeding in infancy" (submitted for publication in the journal Appetite), a study of 1,092 Australian infant-caregiver pairs, and has completed her own thesis on childhood nutrition and eating behaviours — the research foundation behind this guide.

What You'll Get

This guide is for you if:

  • Your child eats the same 5 things and mealtimes have become a source of stress

  • Textures, smells, or foods touching each other derail meals

  • Your child grazes all day but won't sit through a meal

  • You have an "easy" eater and want to make sure variety isn't quietly sliding

This guide won't:

  • Turn a fussy eater into an adventurous one overnight

  • Replace a clinical assessment if there are digestive symptoms, growth concerns, or suspected food intolerance
