As a kid, mashed potatoes were all I would willingly eat. Anything else had to be forced into me. Now that I'm older, I try to be more adventurous and spontaneous but usually just stick to my two favorites: chicken salad and curry. Even when I go out to eat, I find myself falling into a rut no matter how many times I promise myself to try something new from the menu.
I would blame this on the fact that I have celiac disease and thus have to be careful with what I eat, but honeslty I know it's more of an aspie trait. My whole family has celiac disease and they manage eat a varied diet. I'm the only one who has repetitive eating habits and as far as I know, I'm the only aspie.
