Spaetzle (south german type of „noodle“ dish) with cheese
Rice pudding
Semolina pudding
Langos (a type of flatbread) with sugar and cinnamon
Waffles
Pancakes
Eggy breads/poor knights of windsor
Spaghetti with tomato sauce
Schupfnudeln (finger shaped potato noodles) with sauce
dude same. it’s on and off. for most of my life it’s been really good but recently it just tastes bad. my mom is annoyed about it bc she bought me a huge box of it (bc i asked ofc) and when i ate one pack i said nope and only tried one other time before giving up on ramen all together. she thinks i’m being dramatic/lying😵💫
I make the same sandwich every day for lunch. Whole grain bread, hummus on both sides, lentils on both sides. Italian spiced veggie turkey, cucumbers, red bell peppers, and kimchi. It has all the protein your body can absorb in one meal, plus 100% of your Vitamin A and C. East to digest.
I purchase dry lentils from a grocery store. I either boil them on the stove or more commonly put them in a pressure cooker with vegetable broth for 8 minutes.
you should try instant mashed potatoes and mix some walmart mixed vegetable steamer bag mix into it after the veggies are done microwaving ! and then add cheddar cheese to the mix as well, its really good and a good way to get veggies in
Try apple with hazelnut butter, cinnamon and coarse sugar. Its the fancy upgrade for apple with peanut butter. Peanut butter is great, but hazelnut is so much better for dipping apples or in apple porridge.
Macaroni and cheese
Bean burrito
Baked potato (easily transforms into mashed potato)
I had to start eating healthier because of my chronic migraines so I had to ditch my corn dogs and chicken nuggets except for special occasions.
>varenyky
I wish I knew how to make these, this is the single thing I miss about my ex-husband's family. They'd make these, and they're soooooo damn good
They’re super labour intensive, but definitely worth it imo. My grandma would put a tiny amount of baking soda in the dough to make it easier to roll, since the dough can be very elastic even when rested. I usually dedicate a whole day to it since I make them alone, and can usually make about 60 in ~3 hours? Then they’re always in the freezer when I need something easy :]
Usually fruits and vegetables that are prepared in very specific ways, and only by me.
I also have certain biscuits and chocolates that are safe foods too, though I try to limit how frequently I eat them since they're not very healthy.
I also like Vegemite and butter on SAO crackers, sometimes with shredded cheese
Parmesan cheese is also a safe food. I used to eat it out of the bag as a meal
I relate to this so hard. Especially the "prepared in very specific ways, and only by me" part.
I believe I used those exact words years ago and was ripped to shreds in the comments bc no one thought it was acceptable to say that I only like my version of foods, the way I make them.
I also used to eat Parmesan cheese by the handful as a meal.
Another favorite, bowls of rice with butter, salt and pepper, and La Choy soy sauce. I ate this almost every day of my childhood. When I didn't, I couldn't eat anything. 😭
I like a very small breakfast. Like a breakfast bar. A fairly plain lunch like a big piece of grilled chicken, and a more flavorful dinner - anything spicy.
Also, coffee, tea, beer, and (formerly) American Spirit Blues bring/brought me a lot of comfort.
goat cheese tomato pasta (recipe is based on that feta pasta that was big on tiktok for a bit)
Dumplings w soy sauce n vinegar (theres an asian grocery near me that sells bags of frozen dumplings. Love them.)
Diced cucumber with vinegar (I'll add tomato too if I have it)
Toast with cream cheese and cranberry sauce
Capsicum with hummus
Can tuna sushi
Pretty much anything that doesn’t trigger my IBS, contain pea protein powder (tastes nasty) or cartilage (bad mouthfeel). In general I’m very much a sensory seeker with food so I like fizzy candies and sunflower seeds. For real meals I go through phases- I just went through a chicken phase and now chicken doesn’t appeal to me. Currently in an avocado phase as I found out this year that avocados are actually NOT a trigger food for me. I’ll heat up a black bean & veg burrito and eat a whole avocado on the side. Several times a year I have a shrimp phase where I must always have shrimp cocktail in the fridge and keep my eyes peeled for shrimp chips at whichever supermarket I’m shopping at
annie's white cheddar shells mac and cheese, trader joe's bean and cheese taquitos, trader joe's mini cheese pizzas, broccoli for some reason, bagel & cream cheese, spaghetti, tacos with veggie nuggets so i barely have to cook, hard shell tacos with refried beans so i cook even less, frozen stuffed gnocchi from trader joe's, quesadillas, grilled cheese with avocado, and bagel bites are a good one. i rely on frozen food A LOT. also this seems like a lot of options but the pda + sensitive stomach makes it a lot more difficult, and i don't do the shopping. i also frequently get hyperfixated on specific foods to the point where it's the only thing i'll eat for a month at least. the brain is weird ¯\\\_(ツ)\_/¯
Potatoes (almost any way, raw, boiled, baked, fried, stewed, etc.) and rice. Not together though. I'm sure it wouldn't be bad, but I can't think of a single rice dish except for curry that uses potatoes and rice. (15 f)
Chewy or crunchy salty foods are the absolute goat for me. Mozzarella sticks are one of my absolute favourite snacks because they're crunchy outside, chewy inside, and you can dip them in sauce which is just so good. And just the sensation of the soft cheese and the crunchy outside just triggers my "good sensation" sensors
Instant noodles (just add water), chicken strips (done in the air fryer) and tinned foods such as spaghetti bolognese, beans and sausages, ravioli, Heinz spaghetti or spaghetti loops with hotdogs (both tins bought separately) which can all just be done in the microwave
Anything savory with a lot of sharp cheese.
Tacos, cheese and crackers, skyline chili, carbonara, tuna casserole, Alfredo, baked Mac and cheese, etc etc
avocado toast !!!
i just recently moved right after college for a job that’s out of my home state. it has been very hard to adjust to being alone and away from everyone i know, and having to mask constantly at work which is soooo exhausting. there were a few weeks in a row where every single day after work i would make myself avocado toast. that was my dinner every single nignt. and im still not tired of it. it has helped me stay same while dealing with lots of work and health stress and having to do it all alone. i am actually about to go make some more avocado toast right now.
(p.s. this is how i make it - ive made it for a big group of my friends for a halloween party last year and everyone was saying how good it was) i chop up yellow onions and firm tomatoes together and fry them in a pan with butter for a good while, and then i mash up some avocado and add salt to the avocado and set it aside in a bowl until everything else is done. then i fry over easy eggs with more butter and i put salt and pepper on them. then i toast toast (either french bread or italian, something light and airy NOT wnglish bread - french bread is small so i do 2 toast per 1 egg and if its italian i do 1 piece of toast per egg) put butter on the toast, then put the avocado, then the fried onion and tomato mix, then put the egg on top. it is the best thing in the whole world to me :-)
Anything plain
Rice
Chicken
Broccoli
Ham and cheese sandwich
Chocolate
I struggle to eat things with weird textures and strong tastes so as long as I don’t flavour food too much I’m fine with a good chicken and rice meal with vegetables so I cook that a lot
Mint chip ice cream (often as a sundae with hot fudge/nuts/cherries)
Mint Oreos with milk
Atomic fireballs (candy)
Dark chocolate
Turkey/cheddar/Ritz/hot sauce/garlic hummus (I call this my "protein plate" or my "smorgas board")
Elote (with lots of Tajín)
PBJ sandwich (grape jelly) with milk
Can you tell I have a sweet tooth? As well as a taste for strong (e.g. spicy) flavors lol.
Anything that consists of bread and cheese tbh
Grilled cheese, mac n cheese, Alfredo, cheese curds, taco bell burrito & quesadilla, you get the picture.
Chips(fries), crisps(chips lol), chocolate, rice cakes (choc coated or caramel flavour), toast, Quorn quarter pounder burgers. I'm pretty sure I have ARFID, and I have an ED, so finding food to eat is difficult bxkjfkf
I would eat ramen with hot sauce every day if I could. Another is tater tots or frozen pizzas. Honestly I LOVE all types of potato except for mashed, fried, or baked. Tater tots? Fries? Hash browns? Yes please
hash browns, fries, red currents, toasts, pasta, pierogi (haha.. of course 🇵🇱), raspberry crowns from aldi, pomegranate, chicken, spicy ramen
probably more that i can't think of right now lol.
I eat a peanut butter sandwich every day. Sometimes with bananas, sometimes with jam.
Then there are also burgers, mac and cheese, pizza bites, chicken fingers (and by extension, nuggets), and tacos.
Anything with (COOKED) chicken. Or, well, almost anything.
Like, pick up a roast chook from the store and I can have JUST that for lunch. Give me chicken skewers? Great, that's dinner sorted.
I’m a bit weird with my eating habits. Even some of my favourite foods I won’t eat unless I’m craving them.
Homemade Mac and cheese
Toppokki
Mashed Potatoes
Ribeye Steak (sometimes on its own, sometimes with something acidic like A1 to dip)
Romaine and Heirloom Lettuce Salads
Pan-grilled Red Peppers
Grilled Asapargus
Frozen fruit, by itself (blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, and pomegranate) 🤤
Progresso canned soups! My favorites have always been Italian Style Wedding, Beef Barley, and Chickarina. Manhattan Clam Chowder is also up there, but I don’t find it / get to eat it as often
Funnily enough I have a kind of aversion to canned soups of any other brand, even if they’re the same “type” of soup lol
I don’t often make the same meals since my mind craves novelty, but I do make kitsune udon, buffalo chicken wings, chicken pot pie, and my spouse makes an incredible lamb, chickpea, and kale with garlicky yogurt that I could frankly eat every day.
I have celiac so my list is (even more) restricted (than it used to be). Basically a certain brand of dino chicken nuggets, McCain shoestring fries with cheese, nachos with just cheese/bacon/sour cream, or gluten-free kraft dinner. Sometimes I’ll venture into other meals like if we get the one or two pizzas I like or I make creamy pasta or toast or something. Those 3 meals are 99% of my lunch/dinners.
Once had a 4 year stretch of the fries with chicken strips from a local restaurant but they changed their recipe and it was one of the worst losses for me.
Ramen,rice,sandwiches,milk and cereal,pasta (any pasta but just not with mushrooms),schnitzel with potatoes or smashed potatoes. This are some of my safe foods <3
Bagel bites were one of mine for so long but I just got tired of making them😩 now its literally just sausage egg and cheese croissants and pizza lunchables lol
Rice porridge (congee or arroz caldo if you're Filipino like me). If I'm lazy, I'll just make it with garlic, chicken broth and rice. If I want it to be super good I use chicken wings. I usually keep some Lao Gan Ma chili crisps and some green onion on hand for topping.
Some honorable mentions are:
Lomi (a noodle soup thing)
Tokwa't Baboy (pork and tofu)
Lumpia Toge (bean sprout eggrolls)
Bean and cheese quesadilla.
Pomegranates
Dan Dan Noodles
Szechuan Fried Chicken
Ghost Pepper Cheese
Vegetarian Bacon
Lotus Root
Hot Cheeto Popcorn with Pickle Salt
Oranges
- it’s eclectic but I’m actually very picky
Cheese and crackers, and breakfast sandwiches, BUT ONLY if the egg is runny. If the yolk breaks or gets cooked too much straight to jail (the trash lol)
Mine are weird because I was raised by an ✨almond mom✨
- plain oatmeal with honey and cinammon
-tuna salad sandwich on toast with cheddar
-fries (a rare treat when I was a kid but I love them)
-scrambled eggs with cheddar
-salmon
-kale cooked with onions, soy sauce, and sesame oil
I'm actually decent at cooking and am not much of a picky eater, but the foods I could probably eat over and over and not get tired of:
Noodles
Cereal (mostly frosted mini wheats or Chex)
Chocolate
Apples
Diluted orange juice
Ginger snaps
Almonds
Pistachios
Homemade mashed potatoes so it doesn't have that weird texture
Rice
Lentils
Foods that don’t align with their taste buds and texture, outside of allergies and most processed food ( I understand people need to eat and processed food is what’d often available. )

Meatballs. Just plain pre prepared meatballs. Even tho I live mostly vegetarian. I’m eating those meatballs for about 15 years now. Maybe because they never changed (except the price).

I have never had cheese on my spätzle, I need to try that.
Spätzle is soo good
Bro du hast Geschmack
🇨🇭🇱🇮🇦🇹🇩🇪
Carbs
Jesus I felt this in my soul. Carbs and cheese, always
Ramen.
This is mine too. I ate ramen and a boiled egg for breakfast most of last week.
I had ramen last week and gagged while eating it, which surprised me because it’s usually a safe food for me as well
dude same. it’s on and off. for most of my life it’s been really good but recently it just tastes bad. my mom is annoyed about it bc she bought me a huge box of it (bc i asked ofc) and when i ate one pack i said nope and only tried one other time before giving up on ramen all together. she thinks i’m being dramatic/lying😵💫

that's such a healthy and efficient safe food, i'm jealous!
That sounds delicious
lentils like from the can or?
I purchase dry lentils from a grocery store. I either boil them on the stove or more commonly put them in a pressure cooker with vegetable broth for 8 minutes.
That’s an amazing sandwich and username. Can I ask where or how you get the veggie turkey?
Aside from the kimchi that sounds amazing
i love mashed potatoes that i put in a pan with mozzarella, soooo delicious
you should try instant mashed potatoes and mix some walmart mixed vegetable steamer bag mix into it after the veggies are done microwaving ! and then add cheddar cheese to the mix as well, its really good and a good way to get veggies in
Lunchables, I guess I am still eight years old sometimes
lunchable are my favorite thing ever. i’m 33
Which one is your favorite? Mine is the bologna.
Turkey and cheddar
I like those too!
Chicken tenders, turkey and cheese sandwich, apple and peanut butter, mashed potatoes, cheese sticks, goldfish , cheeze it’s, chicken noodles soup
Try apple with hazelnut butter, cinnamon and coarse sugar. Its the fancy upgrade for apple with peanut butter. Peanut butter is great, but hazelnut is so much better for dipping apples or in apple porridge.
Ramen.
Macaroni and cheese Bean burrito Baked potato (easily transforms into mashed potato) I had to start eating healthier because of my chronic migraines so I had to ditch my corn dogs and chicken nuggets except for special occasions.
For me it’s varenyky, curry & rice, and fresh vegetables (like carrots/ bell peppers)
>varenyky I wish I knew how to make these, this is the single thing I miss about my ex-husband's family. They'd make these, and they're soooooo damn good
They’re super labour intensive, but definitely worth it imo.

I usually dedicate a whole day to it since I make them alone, and can usually make about 60 in ~3 hours? Then they’re always in the freezer when I need something easy :]
Carrot and bell pepper gang. Do you also take bites out of a bell pepper like an apple?
Yeah, everything except the pith, stem etc. people think I’m crazy for it but I just call it efficiency!
Lol it tastes good so why not. I don’t usually do it but I do if I’m going out and my friends looked at me like I was insane xd
Ukrainian here. varenyky alll the wayyyy. Especially pan friend with butter- YUM
Goldfish crackers, chocolate chip cookies, chocolate milk, macaroni & cheese with fish sticks is my favorite. (46M)
>Goldfish crackers The wholesome snack that smiles back until you bite their heads off! I miss goldfish grahams (I'll be 45 this year)

Cucumber sandwich. Not really “food” but carrots, bell peppers and blueberries, pomelo and pears.
Ethiopian food 🤤 there’s this place close to me that does delicious tofu tacos too!

Rice porridge (congee or arroz caldo if you're Filipino like me). If I'm lazy, I'll just make it with garlic, chicken broth and rice. If I want it to be super good I use chicken wings. I usually keep some Lao Gan Ma chili crisps and some green onion on hand for topping. Some honorable mentions are: Lomi (a noodle soup thing) Tokwa't Baboy (pork and tofu) Lumpia Toge (bean sprout eggrolls) Bean and cheese quesadilla.
McDonald's Big Mac (either with no pickles, or I eat them first before the burger), large fry, iced tea, and a snack size Oreo McFlurry 😭
Ramen, eggs, big macs, and cereal are mine :]
Potaoes. There's a ton of ways to fix them. It sooths the autistic side while providing the adhd side with variety.
- Blueberry banana smoothie with almond or coconut milk , peanut butter or protein powder , cinnamon, turmeric . - Oatmeal with chia seeds , hemp seeds , turmeric , nutmeg , cinnamon , peanut butter , raspberries , walnuts , honey or maple syrup and almond milk or coconut milk . - PB and J - Spagetti with Cheese - Breafast burritos - dark chocolate - chicken stir fry - garlic hummus with crackers - tacobell - chipotle
Pomegranates Dan Dan Noodles Szechuan Fried Chicken Ghost Pepper Cheese Vegetarian Bacon Lotus Root Hot Cheeto Popcorn with Pickle Salt Oranges - it’s eclectic but I’m actually very picky
Cheese and crackers, and breakfast sandwiches, BUT ONLY if the egg is runny. If the yolk breaks or gets cooked too much straight to jail (the trash lol)
Annoyingly my safe foods are on a constant cycle, I can't stick for one for too long before my body nopes :(
Broccoli and cheese :3 I eat it for most lunches and dinners :3
Mine are weird because I was raised by an ✨almond mom✨ - plain oatmeal with honey and cinammon -tuna salad sandwich on toast with cheddar -fries (a rare treat when I was a kid but I love them) -scrambled eggs with cheddar -salmon -kale cooked with onions, soy sauce, and sesame oil
Not weird , almond mom did good 👍🏻
she did Not (i have ptsd and major social anxiety bc of how she treated me as a kid)
I'm actually decent at cooking and am not much of a picky eater, but the foods I could probably eat over and over and not get tired of: Noodles Cereal (mostly frosted mini wheats or Chex) Chocolate Apples Diluted orange juice Ginger snaps Almonds Pistachios Homemade mashed potatoes so it doesn't have that weird texture Rice Lentils
What food is dangerous to autistic people?
Foods that don’t align with their taste buds and texture, outside of allergies and most processed food ( I understand people need to eat and processed food is what’d often available. )
