I do have a favourite comfort food choice, which always raises my spirits on a trying day: beautiful marmalade made in Spain from Seville Oranges 
spread on buttered toast. Just seeing it in the jar can make me smile. Not an obsession though.
Unfortunately all of my favourite foods are very expensive ones

. Growing up I have gone an entire week or even two weeks just eating one single food every day, for every meal. I know this is unhealthy, but I just seem to have an obsession with grilled cheese, my favourite food. If I was living alone, it would be the only food I'd eat. I think it is pretty common for autistic people to obsess over certain foods and/or have a specific small list of foods that they will eat from. There are many foods that I do not like due to the texture (jello, pudding, yoghurt, etc.) so my menu is already much smaller than the average person, which only makes this problem more pronounced. Before my special food was grilled cheese, it was green grapes. I'd eat those suckers for breakfast, lunch and dinner, my friend.Does anyone have a really specific favourite food (mine is grilled cheese) or any stories of only eating a specific or weird food for long periods of time? Please share, I am curious to see if anyone else is like me.
Cheese is in no way unhealthy.
It has a neutral fat profile(saturated fat is a very neutral fat), and lots of good protein, magnesium and calcium.

Reading this reminded me of me. I obsess over certain foods all the time, to the extent that one Christmas I wouldn't eat anything except for meatballs in gravy (my favourite food!). I grew up eating mostly bread sandwiches and tomato soup, but then one day when I tried meatballs in gravy I never looked back. That became my 'main' meal which I keep on eating.
But I'll only eat them if my mum cooks them, I'm very fussy like that sadly
Quite funny my dad actually bought an entire shelf full of meatballs in gravy once, the car boot was full of them *squeal* I still have meatballs in gravy most nearly everyday now, I have done since I was a little girl and I don't see that changing anytime soon.
The only problem is I am very skinny, not bony but too thin really. But I like being thin and I'm healthy enough so I'm happy.

"obsessed" is the wrong word
"Addicted" to candy (twix, Reese's, kit Kat)
Some articles claim that, chocolate stimulates the same part of the brain, an love
Ha.
Thus far I have given up almost all of my bad eating habits
And none of it was hard
But candy.
Struggling and want to give up
Even Clif bars were easy to give up
Just suddenly stopped eating them
Clif bars have almost as much sugar as kit Kat
Don't get it

Today, however, I am absolutely obsessed with popcorn.
1. It has a nice plain taste. I don't fancy buttered popcorn, because it's all greasy. Nor caramelized popcorn, because it doesn't taste like actual popcorn, and the hard shell of the caramel isn't really my thing. Plain, air popped popcorn is the best for me.
2. The smell is so good
3. It makes a nice sound when it's popping, and when you chew it. Heck, even when you just move it around in the bowl with your fingers.
4. It's nice to eat when warm, and nice to eat when cooled off. Except when it's been out for a couple of minutes, and it gets all chewy.
I like popcorn a lot.
Are you my soul mate?
