Our first minor dispute

So we have run across our first minor dispute with Yuki. While it's a minor issue, it has the ability to turn into a rather large issue. When Yuki applied, she said that she would eat and can eat anything. Somewhere between her applying for the program and getting here, she stopped eating all meat aside from fish, which can turn into a problem with us as we don't have access to good fish and we eat a lot of chicken and pork.

Yuki has tried pork chops, but I don't know what she really thought of it. She had a VERY small bite of steak and was ready to spit it out. We had a grill out, and she only ate veggies and a little bit of mac and cheese. She is very reluctant to try any sort of meat.

I asked her what she would like me to pack in her lunch for school and she told me veggies and an egg sandwich. I can't see her eating that every day for the next year. She wants all of her veggies cooked too. This is the point where I told her that she is going to need to try to eat American food and that I don't have time to cook veggies in the morning plus get us all ready for work and school. It just won't work.

I don't think she understands the need for her to try new foods.

I might need some help on this one.
