Nope.
She only eats what she wants to eat. I wouldn't want someone forcing me to eat something I don't like or want so I've never done that to her.
Do you make them eat it?

I let my youngest kid see what I add. Idk if it's physical or psychological but vegetables make him gag, especially raw ones. If i hide them in dishes he's fine though. So I told him now you know how to cook for yourself and get the vegetables that you need. That being said I would be annoyed if he picked out what he ate yesterday and I'd say something.

Food is not a battle in my house. If they dont want it they can make themselves something else.
Food was not an issue in my house. My dining room table is not a battle ground. Don't like it, don't eat it, please make yourself something else, and clean up after yourself.
I do not eat something that does not smell good to me. I do not eat something that does not taste good to me. I do not eat something that does not look good to me. I can't image the need to be so controlling over food. Forcing a child to eat, or even taste something because you the adult want them to is just stupid. Most food issues take care of themselves over time.

I have picky teens. They either eat from the food that’s on the table or they make themselves something else later. I usually have several options, so they tend to find something they will like.
A few years ago oldest was trying to be manipulative, and would refuse to eat anything on the table. A week of making plain cheese quesadillas got old real and the pickiness suddenly vanished.
Now that oldest is in college, anything home cooked gets eaten without a second thought.

I let them eat what they want out of it.
