Why do kids tend to eat meat?

Question

I know people are supposed to be omnivore, but lets face it, almost 90% of young kids (or even adults) prefer meat over veggies. Why is that? Even when we use substitute meat to resemble teh real one, it still doesnt feel as good as real meat. Why do we tend to eat meat over vegetable, is it because we are born a little meat-loving over veggie-loving?

Answer 1

because meat is yuuuuuuummy

Answer 2

Often meat is "disguised" by breading, sauces, etc., which are normally tasty. In addition, meat is high-protein, which the body subconsciously knows is good for it. Thirdly, a lot of children eat what they are presented with. My friend's daughter is being raised in a vegetarian home. She's never had meat and always opts for veggies. It's what she knows and it's what her parents say they love, so she loves it too. Conversely, kids are often taught that veggies are boring and yucky, so they abstain. This translates into adulthood, which continues the cycle with their children, etc. The body knows what it needs, but it's often nurture over nature.
