Case in point: With intense swim and karate sessions he gets cramps, especially in summer. Drinking coconut water helps. Two choices.....
Option A: Coconut water by Vita Coco $1.50 (pasteurized, so no need to store in the fridge, saving space+ longer shelf life and more convenient)
Option B:Coconut water by Simple Harvest $4 (fresh, not pasteurized so must be kept in the fridge, must be carried in a cooler to swim, and expensive to boot)
He refuses to drink coconut water usually and must be forced to drink. He samples the expensive one in Costco, goes back for another sample, and another, and another, and another and one more...until the saleswoman is looking at me like "You better buy this lady!!!!"
He likes the $35 Baumkuchen( very light and airy, the whole cake can be eaten in one serving) but not the $3.50 cake slice at Safeway.
BTW, the procedure to make a Baumkuchen..watch this
VERY high maintenance.... (both the cake and Aditya :-) )

I remember the jumbo Honeymoon Special/ Moghul ice cream servings at Vennela, Nellore or BPS, Kavali.
I also remember the Pizzas at Dominoes/Pizza Hut with Saila and Mahendra running away and being called back to stuff it in!
Yes! as you said he takes after you.
He is also content with the inexpensive food of curd and rice. Perhaps it is the degree of processing that he is particular about. He likes food that is more 'whole', simple and less processed, I think...which is a good instinct.
Anna, he does prefer fresh to processed and I am glad for that as well. Only, when this burns a serious hole in the pocket book or when it causes major inconvenience in feeding him, posts like this happen :-)
