Title of project: 
School lunch choices at age 13 years in persistent picky eaters in a longitudinal birth cohort study
Proposal summary: 

The aim of the project is to look at foods and food group choices in school meals and snacks by children aged 13 years who were persistent picky eaters in the early years. The data were collected via questionnaires that the children completed themselves. Children with persistent picky eating habits during their early years have already been identified. Their choices will be compared with those of children who were not picky eaters.

Impact of research: 
Greater insight into long-term effects of early picky eating and transitions to self-directed eating in teenage years
