Monthly Neurodiverse Megathread #7! Theme: Food and Cooking

Hello neurodivergent comrades and allied neurotypical comrades! This month's megathread is all about food and cooking.

If you can't think of anything to talk about then try leaving a comment answering one or more of the following questions:

  • What are your favorite and least favorite foods?
  • Do you make/cook/prepare your own food, and if yes, do you enjoy it or not?
  • How does your neurodivergence effect your eating habits and how does it effect your ability and willingness to cook?

Or feel free to completely ignore the theme and post what you want! We’re just happy to have you!

Preemptive Warning About Starting Vegan Struggle Sessions:

Hopefully this won't be a problem, but just in case, we'd like to make clear that we won't be tolerating anyone trying to put down other ND comrades (see rules 2 through 4 on the sidebar). This doesn't mean that we're banning any vegan and/or/vs non-vegan discussion, but we will start removing comments if discussion gets too heated.

TL:DR: Keep it civil and respectful, take struggle sessions elsewhere.

  • Here's a little something to start the thread off with: How do your meds effect your eating habits?

    Personally, I've found that sugar and/or caffeine is a really bad idea while on Dexmethylphenidate (focalin) 'cause it gives me anxiety. But I've only ever been on focalin, so I have to ask, are there similar problems with other meds? Do any of y'all have types of foods or specific food ingredients that you've found you just can't/shouldn't eat while on meds?
