food and drink

My work colleague called me odd the other day, i work on a shift of around 10, many times i have been offered a tea/coffee and always declined, when he asked me why the only reason i could give is, i would rather make my own than inconvenience someone (plus i know just how i like it.

He also bought in a bun from the local bakery for a taster test to see if they will run with it, after ripping a piece off, he encouraged me to try some, i couldnt, even though i know he is clean, it had been manhandled, 

i am very fussy about food and dont know if its the Autism or me being me. i cannot stand food with bones in (with the exception of ribs) 

i prefer to stick with what i know

    Me too. With food and autism it's important to stick with what you know and trust because new foods can cause turmoil for the gut because a lot of us have intolerances and IBS... :( 

    I have a diet sheet I made with foods I know and trust. I always take my own food out with me as well. My sister says I'm crazy but it's just being sensible.

    An IBS attack can linger on for days, at least I avoid that by eating my own food and sticking to the right diet.
