ABSTRACT Fruit and vegetable (FV) consumption is promoted by health authorities, but remains too low. In children, low FV consumption is linked to food neophobia (FN), the rejection of unfamiliar foods. Sensory properties play a key role in children's rejection of food, yet the role of olfaction in FN among children remains under‐researched. This study
