In this “speed round” of “The Parent Pep Talk,” a new podcast from Safe Kids Worldwide, dietician Deanna Busteed focuses on a variety of nutritional issues and answers questions about healthy eating habits such as: What to do if your kid won’t eat vegetables? Is fast food okay? Is organic food worth the expense?
