This story was called in by Mrs. Lander. Mrs. Lander said that she had a little child who was a very picky eater. It was very hard to get her to eat the proper food.

Hashem.” She started being mechazek and singing, “Hakol Yachol, Hakol Yachol, Hakol Yachol…” Right afterwards, her child started eating and eating until she gobbled up every last crumb! Her child was smiling and said, “Yummy!” In no time, she ate up the whole plate, better than ever! Read more: Bitachon Story #385
