Does anybody NOT have a food they can't stand?!

AuTriker

So many of us seem to have some very strong opinions on foods we find not just inedible but unutterably vile. So I was wondering if there are any autistic people here who are happy to eat any food or maybe only have a mild dislike to a few things but would eat them if they were hungry or to be polite?

  • Cheese! 

    For as long as I can remember I've detested cheese. I can't even place what it is about it that I don't like. It just makes me gag. I've even tried it as an adult (thinking some sort of childhood thing has made me believe I detest the stuff) Still can't put the stuff in my mouth and chew it! Unless it's cooked. I can eat it on toast or in a sauce. I couldn't eat a piece of the "raw" stuff to save my life! I've only recently identified myself as autistic and I know food can be an issue for many but didn't think this was true of me. Until I read this thread. Perhaps this is the root of my cheese issue?!
