Food Issues High Functioning ASD

DS 5 dx'd High Functioning ASD Delayed Expressive Language.

He has serious food issues although he eats all food groups the amount and variety are very small. I know some issues are sensory as he prefers crunchy foods to mush/sauces.

His height centile is around 16 and weight around 9 but he has always been skinny from birth.

Does anyone else have food issues? 

It's making us all worry including his school where the school nurse has weighed and measured him. I insist on school dinners so that it gives him the opportunity to try new things and generally think they are a good thing.

 Anybody got any advice/suggestions/comments ect?
