7 month old won't eat non-sweet baby food TL;DR

TL;DR 7 month old won't eat vegetable porridge , need advice how to get her to eat it.​Dear parents of RedditI'm sure this will be a familiar topic to many of you. Our little one who has recently turned 7 months old won't eat her vegetable porridge.Basically, when my wife and I introduced her to baby porridge we did so with rice porridge (classic, from what I heard) and she loved it. We were then told to mix that brand porridge with various fruits and vegetables and just keep going. Everything was going smoothly until our pediatrician told us to have our little one consume three portions of porridge a day where her lunch porridge would only consist of vegetables (no brand rice porridge). Needless to say, the baby won't eat any of it. She keeps making faces, and when we do finally manage to "sneak-a-spoonful" into her mouth, she would just stare at us while holding the food in (she won't even swallow it).The other two portions are just fine. She will happily eat her morning porridge, which is the brand rice porridge with a different fruit, and her evening porridge, which is exclusively corn and rice (also brand) porridge.We need help on how to get her to eat her middle vegetable porridge. The biggest problem seems to be that the brand rice porridge is slightly sweet and that she got so used to the sweet taste that she won't have anything else.Most articles online seem to suggest to not force our little one to eat the vegetable porridge but to just let her try it and if she refuses, to simply take it away and one day she will just magically accept it. However, none of them tell you what to do once you take the food away. I mean, should we just let our baby go hungry until her third porridge? That doesn't sound good to me.Should we make our daughter eat the porridge by "smuggling" the spoonfuls in when she is distracted?Should we let her try the porridge and then take it away if she refuses, and if so, what should we feed her then?Should we try mixing the brand rice porridge with the vegetables?Something else?Any advice would helpThank you in advance via /r/Parenting https://ift.tt/2Vvw4gg
