withholding all food until...

My piggies have refused to eat ANY veggies except leafy greens and carrots.

Today, I removed all the hay, pellets and lettuces from the cage and gave them ONLY bell peppers (red, yellow and green). After about 2 hours, they started to eat them. They ate only about 1/16th of a cup, and then no more. I went ahead and gave them theit hay, pellets and greens back and they chowed down and finished off all the greens, and 1/2 the hay.

I know they need the peppers for vit.c. Is it okay to withhold everything else in the morning until they eat those, and then give them the things they like?
