I know the feeling...a few mouths full and he saids in time usually after it sits there on the counter that he cant eat it. He may have changed his mind and wont eat it or just tries a few mouths full. I usually only put a small amount out for him and store the rest for me later. (most times) We are now stocked with everything he usually liked. e.g 4 boxes of oatmeal and the list goes on. I also try not to eat good stuff in front of him...2 weeks to go!!! 10 days and counting!!
