What then of siblings with completely different tastes?
My brother was a "problem eater". Even now he barely touches fruit or vegetables unless heavily disguised. Not a problem for my sister and I. And yet my bro is far more adventurous in life and in food than my sister (I think that's down to nature - she's a deeply conservative person).
