My hamster is a picky eater, leaving pellets. What food can I offer?

Question

So I’m currently out of country and the current care taker of Toffee has Notified me that she is only picking out bits of her food and leaving the grains and pellets. Everything else is normal. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this issue or any food recommendations she may enjoy? Pet's info: Other | Unknown - Other | Female

Have your caretaker offer fresh vegetables. If Toffee is eating just corn kernels and sunflower seeds from her mix, switch to a mix with less of both and consider a lab block type hamster chow. If she will allow, check her teeth for uneven growth or misalignment. She probably has a food hoard in her cage, so going without food is likely not a concern.
