This is a pilot study to test how a growing-up formula (GUF) compares to a common nutritional supplement (NS), which is regularly used to help toddlers (ages 12-36 months) gain weight. This study will look at whether GUF helps to increase solid food intake for children who are thought to be "picky eaters" and see the effects on growth compared with the NS. To date, it is not clear if GUFs help to increase intake of solid foods. Participants will be placed into one of the two study arms: Enfagrow (GUF) or Pediasure (standard NS).
