… Autistic people eat only fried garbage? That doesn’t seem exclusively neurodivergent to be honest. I know some have that thing about food textures, but…
It’s more the fact these processed foodstuffs are absolutely held to the same flavour and manufacturing over and over and over. It’s routine in food form

Where are my dunkaroos, and broccoli?
I couldn’t agree more. I love veggies
Untrue. I like certain fried garbage as comfort food when I need something to stabilize myself back to my routines, but that doesn’t mean I only eat that. I keep a varied diet with tons of veggies (those with a texture/taste I can stand, and most of them raw, I prefer their taste over the cooked ones) and I try to keep my animal consumption to a minimum.
However… That plate has a lot of interesting textures to eat (but it’s missing the mayo to dip them all, I can’t stand fried garbage without a bit of mayo).
Also, the pizza is wrong. That kind of whatever topping it has is probably going to overwrite the rest of the flavours of the pizza.
… pepperoni? Or are you talking about the slightly overcooked cheese?
Yeah, like what? I know my veggies.
Ick, they’re all touching each other
Once you pour ketchup all over everything it doesn’t matter.
Y’know, I have a big squeeze bottle of ketchup sitting in the fridge unopened. Several times I have thought, “this dinner could use a squirt of ketchup to dip into.” But because it’s just me, and I only ever use a little squirt, I always decide it’s not worth starting the clock on that big jug. Probably silly because ketchup is famously long-lived, but better for me not to get all that sugar in my system anyway. Sometime when the kids are all home I’ll have to plan a dinner that justifies breaking the seal.
I just take little shots here and there to make sure it eventually empties in a few days
You’re over thinking it brother! Open that thing, enjoy it. It will outlive us both.
British tapas
Brapas
Best in the world
Fried scrub daddies?
Yes, Scrub Daddies are made from polymerized mashed potatoes so they are delicious fried
Lol they’re actually fried mashed potatoes.
0/10, different foods are touching each other.
That looks absolutely delicious.
Not sure if that’s Autism or Britishness to be honest.
Some of these can burn in hell
Yeah seriously. Fuck some, but not all, of these food items.
Get that abomination of a waffle fry out of here. It’s kind isn’t welcome here
But they’re waffley versatile!
grill 'em, bake 'em, fry 'em, eat 'em
Oh look. A bunch of shit my granddaughters claim they’re going to eat, so I buy, but then they only take a couple of bites and announce that these don’t taste the same as the ones mom gets.
not autistic, just adhd and picky but oh my word that looks divine
I’m autistic, and this is absolutely disgusting.
My autistic son wouldn’t eat any of those. Not even one. I wish he would.
But it looks like a sampler for just about any NT kid I’ve known.Just out of curiosity, what does he eat?
He eats cheese pizza only, peanut butter, cereal, sometime yogurt, hamburgers sometimes, hot dogs, ham and cheese (but often not the bread), suprisingly buttered bread, toast and mostly food that comes in bar form. Granola bars and many of the variations of those. And of course ice cream, candy, and a variety of deserts.
Whereas I feel called out. I eat all of these… Just not at the same time but its all my easy no effort meals. Except those waffle looking things, not sure what those are.
Also out of curiosity, what is NT?
New Technology. Those kids run on Windows XP SP2.
Ah, makes sense. Thx
Nuerotypical.
Sample platter for a 10 year old kid. Just need some hotdogs 🌭
I don’t get the connection to autism. Could someone explain the joke?
A lot of autistic people lean towards eating ultra-processed foods because it’s a predictable sensory experience. They might order a burger, but request no tomato/pickles. Or a pizza, but only cheese and pepperoni.
It follows that an autistic person might eat children’s food into adulthood because it’s what they know.
Of course not all autistic people are like this, but it’s why a platter with dinosaur nuggets and spaghettio’s would be called an autistic sampler.
Some autists only eat beige food. Same as some non-autists. No real connection, just a cutesy meme making autists look like children.
