Feeding the kids Swiss food

I have just read that to help kids integrate into society if they travel around with you and to help them make friends at school, one should feed them local food so they smell like the other kids.

I don't have much of a sense of smell so I do not know how powerful or realistic a step to take this would be. So my question is this...

1. Do you think feeding your kids local food would help?

2. What would be the theme of local Swiss food that would influence the integration (like eating garlic to live in France perhaps).

3. If there are any food stuffs, do you have the recipe to share?

Personally, I think that just moving my kids over will be a trauma in itself without them having to give up familiar foods they love to eat local Rosti!
