Have a picky eater on your hands? Finally, a cathartic way to vent your frustration.

We’re talking about Instagram, of course. The week-old account My Kid Can’t Eat This encourages parents to post photos of rejected food along with the reason why #MyKidCantEatThis.

Take a look below. Maybe you, too, have contaminated a banana because you peeled it instead of dad. Or maybe you can relate to the time when the wrong bowl truly ruined everything.
