This is completely plausible, in fact, since starting school and having school dinners my son is now not only willing to try new fruits and vegetables he is proactive in deciding the household food shop. Believe me, it's far more satisfying to have a child ask for cauliflower rather than 'cheesestrings' or 'sunny-d'. Seeing his friends eating something he's unsure of give him the confidence to try it himself. Positive peer pressure in action.

Or you work for MCd's marketing dept.
