i was sitting here thinking, and i realized that my brain is stupidly specific about what foods i will and won't eat, to the point where with some things, if you were to slice into it in a certain way, i couldn't even look at it.
some examples? sprite, kids grape chewable painkillers, a very specific type of sugar cookie, opaque jello with chunks in it, the cheese in lunchables, gummies shaped like cartoon characters, and carrot cake.
does anyone else have similar aversions to foods? i can't imagine im the only one

Picked asparagus
Grape/cherry flavored candy - it tastes like gross medicine
I won't eat any type of gummy worms or fruit snacks EXCEPT for one brand that makes them so I can actually bite through them. If they're too chewy I get grossed out

I'm autistic, so this is a non-exhaustive list:
- Beans...except for adzuki beans, but only when they're prepared in a specific way (bean paste, mostly) (also green beans, but those aren't Beans)
- Sweet potatoes are disgusting, FIGHT ME
(needless to say, sweet potato chili is one of the most disgusting things i can think of)
- My body physically cannot handle...some forms of thick, chunkless soup. Like, it just...Will Not Allow It
- Chicken and turkey in forms that chicken/turkey/probably any other bird, ever were never meant to be in (mealballs, sausage, jerky, BACON, etc...)
- POTATO SALAD IS AN ABOMINATION
- and so are salads with meat in them
- tbh any salad that isn't lettuce + dressing and possibly vegetables is a disgrace to me (but i like coleslaw)
- a lot of cold meats are Terrible to me, but seafood is fine cold. Cold lunchmeat can go die in a hole, though
- i'm starting to realize that i actually have a lot of these Intolerable Foods

Cream in chocolate. That stuff does NOT belong. I'll have it in doughnuts and cakes, but cream does NOT belong in chocolate. It's nasty.

Specific types of frozen dumplings, particularly ones with pork or cabbage inside them...I swear they taste gross and soggy/sour, but no one else in my family seems to mind???
Other flavours, like prawn har gow, are fine for some reason. Not that great, but ok. Idk, cooked but previously packaged/frozen dumplings just taste at best mehhh to me.
