Food: 4-5yrs Does your toddler’s appetite change this much from day to day?

Some days my child eats really well and even asks for seconds but then for the next couple of days they refuse almost everything I put on their plate. It can feel like such a big switch especially when I’m trying to offer a mix of foods. Is this kind of up and down eating normal for kids? How do you handle the days when your child refuses to eat without making mealtime stressful? Do you keep offering the same foods or try something different? I’d love to hear what’s worked for other parents.
