I agree that it is a phase that will pass eventually

DS use to throw his food all the time but I couldn't give it to him all at once as he would eat his meat first and not eat anything else but if I gave vege's etc... he would eat some vege's and then meat.

I tend to take the ignore route but do agree that when they start throwing it it tends to mean DS doesn't want anymore even if he has only eaten 1 bite... sometimes he just isn't hungry

Goodluck and hope this phase passes quickly for you.
