My daughter also spitted solid fruit even the size is very very small since I always feed her congee even she is one and half year old. I used to use food mixer to cut meat and vegetable smaller into congee like texture). I used few months to correct her eating habit. At first I tried some soft texture food first like vegetable and fish. At last I feed her pork which now she handles very well. You can try something he likes most first. Now my daughter is 2 years and 8 months old and the 18th tooth is just appeared. I suppose this is the reason she refuses solid food but dentist said there is no relationship. Some children are more sensitive to food texture. You may consult specialst for further advice if there is no progress.
