Thanksgiving host uninvites MIL over food dispute

A woman uninvites her picky mother-in-law to Thanksgiving after she wanted to bring her own meal instead of eating what the hostess had prepared. The hostess had created a menu with traditional and unique dishes that she had been testing all month. Her husband argued that his mother was a “grade A picky eater” and wouldn’t like anything the hostess had prepared. The hostess sees this as incredibly r**e and disrespectful after putting so much time, money, and labor into this upcoming meal. After asking if the mother-in-law could not eat anything, the husband called the hostess insensitive and petty. The hostess wonders if she is the a**hole for uninviting her mother-in-law. However, after reading the replies, she decides to take the high road and let her mother-in-law come to Thanksgiving. The hostess plans to focus on her other guests and ignore her mother-in-law. Will the mother-in-law try something new and like it, or will she continue to refuse everything?
