Autism Dads understand this too. The panic and worry that sets in when even their go to safe food is a no go. The fear of your child becoming sick from not eating. All good Autism parents go through this

Candlewick Crochet :
Mac and cheese. like what? and suddenly I had a whole pot of food he once loved going untouched and there is no reasonable way to save and reheat that. and it wasn't just kraft he turned against. it was his favorite restaurant meal too. so not exactly a "cheap" bowl of food. ah well.

Stars Are Bright :
Strawberries and Blueberries for months but randomly tried them again. another is bacon for almost 2 years, then randomly wanted it again. another was pepperoni on pizza, for 3 almost 4 years it was cheese pizza only. now he loves pepperoni and bacon on pizza, adding eating the whole pizza minus the crust now. he would only eat the cheese on top for all those years. image me feeling like he is wasting that pizza and would eat 2 whole cheese pizzas.
I mean I can name them but he only has a variety of maybe 10-12 things he likes but not all at the same time. he is fixated on 2-3 things for months, will add maybe 1 or 2 things between those 2 months (eating about 5-6 different things within those months). mine is on a supplemental nutrient also drink because he "lost" 10 lbs in a month but is growing. he is also a liver transplant recipient and immunocompromised so he has to have nutrient to survive.

Pasta. I could always count on to eat pasta any time. Now he refuses it. And some days I’m struggling to get him to eat anything at all!

💙 his battles are our battles! He used to eat pizza and apples but lately its chicken and I'm so glad because he refused it for a long time. I cried lol he sat with me and tried strawberries and loved them but I had to bribe him with a popsicle afterwards....needless to say he ate almost half the container of strawberries ❤️each day is different and remember patience.

mac n cheese , his one constant, I was able to hide so much stuff in it to ensure he got what he needed , now he decided he doesnt like any brand or even restaurant style. I honestly don't know what to feed him , he literally only eats fruit and snacks and occasional nuggie or pb&j

All of them. All at once. He only has smoothies now. From a sippy cup with a lid. He won’t eat anything else from anything else. He’s 6 now. Still on baby food pretty much. 💔

I can only imagine how confusing it is for a kid because its confusing for me as an adult when my favorite food makes me sick and not having a food that replaces it is brutal
