Tantrums over yogurt!

My LG has recently started screaming at meal times until we give her yogurt. Shes on 3 meals a day and her dinner is whatever we eat. Shes not always a fan, I try to have a few options available If she decides she doesn’t want it. But lately she has been deliberately throwing her dinner on the floor. When we offer stuff we know she likes she continues to throw it on the floor and then screams until we give her yogurt. I don’t know what to do! I feel like we need to set boundaries and not cave to the yogurt request every night but I also don’t want her to start waking overnight for additional breastfeeds because she’s hungry. For context she has been waking 1-2 a week and after hours of trying to settle her, a breastfeed seems to be the only thing that works. We night weaned 3 months ago and have been trying to cut back the daytime feeds too whilst increasing her food intake. Feels like we’re fully in the throws of toddlerdome but she is literally 10.5 months old. Looking for any advice how to manage my darling daughter!

My son had a similar stage but it turned out to be teething so I think everything was hurting his gums but not yoghurt. Could it be that? It lasted about 10 days I’d say and he’s gone back to normal now

It’s possible, she already had her front 8 teeth. Hates having her teeth brushed so won’t let me look in her mouth if any more are coming but I guess they could be.
