Smells food

My nephew is a picky eater. He is four and in preschool and will not eat a normal diet. I am worried about his long term health because of his diet. His parents give in to him just to get him to eat something.
He will only eat certain things and not vary from this list at all and he smells everything first, just to make sure it is the right "brand". For example; he only will eat KFC mac n cheese, but if you make him another brand (kraft?!?!)he looks at it, smells it and throws a fit until they give in and go get him his KFC.
That is just one example. Do you think this a parental problem or could it be some sort of sensory problem? He has been this way since he was a baby. Our family is frustrated and worried.
