We are vegetarian and we tend to eat nothing that is processed and pretty much organic. Also my son is allergic to eggs. Just a little background so that you know what little quirks I am working with. 
A couple of months ago my 2 1/2 year old son caught a stomach bug and threw up. Since then he has gone from eating wonderfully to only bland foods or breast milk. He isn't afraid to try anything, but anything with any flavor and he gets nervous. He has no other fears in any other part of his life. It is only the food.
The doctor said he is fine and healthy and he seems happy, but I worry about long term. Has anyone else had something like this happen?
We have an organic garden so I am hoping with our food being easily accessible he will venture back into eating more of a variety.
I have gotten other advice of give him no choice, if he gets hungry enough he will eat it, but that was the same advice I had gotten with my older girl, now 24 yrs, who was a very different type of eater and it backfired into an eating issue.
