To make a list of what David won't eat would be exhaustive. Vegetables -
he will only eat peas (canned), carrots, corn, and potatoes. Salads are
out of the question. Meats - he will only eat a few cuts of beef, pork, or
chicken, and none of them can be cuts that either contain bone or are on a
bone. He will not eat any form of fish or seafood. Fruits - he will only
eat bananas, grapes, applesauce, and orange juice. Breads - he will only
eat soft white or sourdough, and nothing that contains seeds or other
additives with texture. He will eat smooth peanut butter and jelly, but
not jam or preserves. Desserts, if they are chocolage and do not contain
nuts. That's about it.

Needless to say, I cook many separate meals for the two of us. I simply
could not exist on that. In 14 years, I have managed to add perhaps 2 items
to his diet that he would not eat before.
