2 yo throwing food in the highchair - help!

I follow all the feeding accounts on IG and I am trying to apply their suggestions but I’m just curious how you all handle this and if there’s anything new I can try:

My son is almost 2 (in a couple months) and he has a horrible habit of throwing food in the high chair. I’ve noticed it occurs mostly when he’s either not hungry or doesn’t like what dinner is. He is also an insanely picky eater.

What I’ve been doing is just getting him out of the chair when he starts throwing but the problem is I also want to get him to TRY dinner. Sometimes he throws food without even trying. He has improved with at least trying new foods but he NEVER likes it so I can’t really see that as a win?

I feel like everything I read makes me scared that if I have a picky eater now he’ll always be like this. I usually do a bedtime snack but is that a bad habit as well? My mom tells me I was a picky eater but I’m definitely not picky as an adult.

Thanks for reading & the help 😫
