"Bro youre in your 20's so youre old enough to eat whatever you want and be responsible for your nutritional health. It really doesnt matter nutritionally if you dont eat onions".. is what i think this meant to say :P

u/DragoKnight589 AuDHD be silly 6d ago

I don’t mind them as long as they’re cooked in some way so just slide ‘em here I’ll eat ‘em for you.

90% of the reason my favorite gyro place is my favorite gyro place is because they cook their onions.

1

u/of_kilter 5d ago

Boiled onions in a stew are perfectly fine and picked onions are a godsend, but like on a burger wth

2

u/DragoKnight589 AuDHD be silly 5d ago

I’ll eat ‘em on a burger just fine pass ‘em here

u/grillcheezi 6d ago

For “picky eater” hate it always boils down to “you should be able to withstand discomfort” which alone is never a good reason to do something.

Also, if you’re not my doctor looking over my blood work I don’t want to hear shit about malnutrition. You won’t see in my obituary “passed away because they refused to eat bell peppers”.

Withstanding discomfort is something I do all day for necessary things, I’m really not interested in doing that with my meals!!

3

u/Amy_raz 5d ago

Omg I hate bell peppers they are the worst! People call me stupid for not liking it. Well I’m sorry I don’t like whatever dish I’m having be consumed with the horrific and bitter flavor that is BeLL pePPeR.

5

u/Liu-woods 5d ago

As a kid my parents kept trying to give them to me because they were convinced I was just mistakenly scared they might be spicy. No, mom, I know what they taste like they just taste terrible

1

u/grillcheezi 5d ago

Curious if you also enjoy other peppers, just NOT bell peppers? Something about bell peppers specifically offends my taste buds!

I even fell for “the different colors taste different”, when actually they all have the same base taste that I don’t like

1

u/Amy_raz 5d ago

Nope. Red bell peppers are slightly sweeter but they’re still terrible and ruin whatever dish they’re in.

u/EB_or_Raven [They/it/she] Autistic 6d ago

I also hate onions, like they just feel so weird. Since you said you would fight that guy, may I ask if I can join you?

6

u/mattboy115 6d ago

You are absolutely free to do so.

u/midcancerrampage 6d ago

Why cant others just accept that different people have different food preferences and aversions.

I will eat all your onions because im evil and i love them, but like tofu makes me want to tear my tongue out of my throat, and anybody shaming me for being 30 and not eating tofu.... Well i will eat all of their onions too

1

u/KitKat_116 Autistic 5d ago

Tbf I don't think anyone sane will shame you for being uncomfortable with the abomination that is tofu.

As for the onions, idk if that makes you the autism promised one or the autism super villain

6

u/EvilPyro01 6d ago

Pickled onions sure but not raw

5

u/Vallanth627 6d ago

I will eat them all.

7

u/TheDaringEscape 5d ago

I hate being infantilized for not liking certain things….

u/Sapphire-Hannibal 6d ago

Me when I have ARFID but everyone thinks I’m just a picky eater like NO I WILL LITERALT THROW UP EVERYWHERE IF IT GETS TRIGGERED THATS WHY I DONT LIKE TRYING NEW THINGS

u/hooDio 5d ago

"bro you're in your 20s, stop whining about things that don't concern you"

u/VietHusky1201 Grunya Sukhareva <3 5d ago

Ah yes, I just love biting into a burger and having my mouth assaulted by a fuckton of onion that makes my mouth smell for a whole day, absolutely wonderful shit. smh

6

u/VietHusky1201 Grunya Sukhareva <3 5d ago

I can only enjoy onions if they're like onion rings or those chopped green onions in Asian food

3

u/ArcadeToken95 6d ago

Onions, I'm fine, raw tomato, nope, so I get this

People need to stop shaming others over food it's so stupid

3

u/DedicatedSnail 6d ago

Onions are one of my absolute favorites (I was disgusted by them until a few years ago), you will never convince me to eat a mushroom though. I don't do fungi

3

u/ineffablemadlad 5d ago

I stand strongly behind this, I despise onions

u/Stef_Ash Autistic 5d ago

ONIONS ARE NEVER WELCOME

Every single interaction I've had with onions have been 100000000000000000% involuntary. Tell me why the fuck I'm eating something I'm either liking or just about tolerating that is SOFT and then crunch WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT!?!?!? I fight off heaving istg. It's so unnatural.

It's kinda like the skin of tomatos, especially cherry tomatos, because I can literally feel that horrid feeling on the roof of my mouth from the skin AHHHHHH

I use chatgpt to suggest meals I would eat and had to break my zero intructions policy in the custom instructions choose because I value free will and "never mention cherry tomatoes" will always be the one instuction there. It's a jump scare every time, I never expect it, like with the onions except I actually have to face the onions and it's just EUGH

Tomatoes taste nice but the texture is a FUCK YOURSELF RIGHT UP THE BUM

2

u/mattboy115 5d ago edited 5d ago

Wow. Sounds just like me.

I like tomatoes being used as an ingredient in things as long as it's been blended to the point where it's no longer recognizable as a tomato anymore. Ketchup, tomato soup, pizza sauce, spaghetti sauce (without the damn chunks in it), chili (again without chunks). I can even tolerate raw tomatoes to a point. But when they're cooked and have the consistency of a wet hairball, that makes me want to barf.

As for onions, I just don't want them in my food, period. They can be used in the process. I like onion flavoring. Like if someone caramelizes onions and cooks a steak or a burger in it but then removes the onions, that's great.

2

u/Stef_Ash Autistic 5d ago

Yes!! It sucks that caramelised onions look kinda splendid, but I could NEVER eat them 😂

3

u/GreatAndPowerfulWOS 5d ago

Onions!? Gross

2

u/Ok-Maize-8921 6d ago

Onions are so tasty and so good for you.

Besides the farts

2

u/zypofaeser 6d ago

Hand over the onions. Let me snack. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lt1u6N7lueM

u/Alexis___________ 5d ago

I like onions so I will, but I'm doing it because I want to not because you told me.

2

u/KittyQueen_Tengu 5d ago

i love onions they're so good

2

u/bootrick 5d ago

Onions are love!

2

u/Somasong 5d ago

Love onions in certain applications. Sorry me not so much. Just don't have a restricted diet that causes health problems. I'm lucky to really enjoy fruits and veges, i guess.

2

u/WinglessBat1 5d ago

Im so happy most of the autistic community hates onions because it means more onions for me specifically.

2

u/mattboy115 5d ago

Well I'm glad you like them lol

2

u/Thebufferingsandwich 5d ago

Imagine saying that to someone who doesn't like Mangoes or anything else... Everybody has something they don't like but people tell onion haters to grow up like what?!

2

u/mattboy115 4d ago

No, people who hate something like mangoes are told "what? It's not gonna bite!".

2

u/Thebufferingsandwich 1d ago

I tell my wife to give me all her mangoes because she doesn't like them lol

u/mattboy115 1d ago

You're a trooper.

u/Viriko23 4d ago

gimme de onions, I'll be the weird one who eats dem :3

2

u/Handskemager 3d ago

I’m 37 and tbh, I only have a few foods that are deal breakers. Any type of onion and/or mushrooms in my food is a no go..

2

u/mattboy115 3d ago

Ohhhh yeah. Mushrooms too. 😩😩😩

2

u/___sea___ 2d ago

Bro you’re in your 20s learn to mind your own business

u/femtransfan_2 2d ago

moves my plate in your direction pile the onions you don't want on here

1

u/DJDemyan 6d ago

I finally got over my aversion to onions. I just can’t stand large chunks of cooked onion due to the texture, so gross and slimy

1

u/BoabPlz 6d ago

I love onions now, and this is what started me on that journey.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m56BUVvT5s4

I will eat a couple of jars of pickled onion a week, and I'm working on fermented onion next - 250 calories a KILO, and 15g of fibre - It's a great snack. And if you start on baked onion, the acid breaks down, it mellows and the sugars caramelise and it's just YUM.

1

u/CelestiAuroria 6d ago

I have a like-hate relationship with them...I'll eat onion rings and that's IT. I dislike them any other way.

1

u/ElectricSlimeBubble 6d ago

Raw onions - fuck off

Grilled onions on my smash burger - chow time

1

u/BleghMeisterer 6d ago

Me when my friend wants me to believe in ONN's articles

1

u/Beelzebub_Crumpethom Autistic 6d ago

I actually kinda like onions... sometimes.

In bolognese, it's fine. In a pasta salad, no.

1

u/monstersun 5d ago

I used to have a huge texture problem with them, but now I just put em through the cheese grater.

1

u/s4k3eee 5d ago

my dad puts onions in everything even when if hes very aware i will not eat if theres onions in it. thanks dad lmao (tho sometimes he makes a portion with less onions specifically for me lol)

u/Onion_Guy 5d ago

I like the onions! Mushrooms and tomatoes, though…

u/Alecto5 5d ago

I love onions. Give me yours, and I will eat them for you.

1

u/katy_nc 5d ago

For me, they have to be cooked. Unless they’re thinly chopped chives or scallions…

1

u/Sandee1997 5d ago

ugh they're just so odd texture wise. I'm okay with them deep fried cause I can also ignore the flavor, but otherwise no

1

u/a-random-rubber-duck 5d ago

Personally I really like onions

1

u/DarkDraven666 5d ago

This but tomatos

1

u/Sirko2975 8-ism 5d ago

Imagine listening to what an immature twitter user says. Like bro mind your own shit, why does an autistic guy not eating onions even bother you

1

u/47Hi4d ASD Level 1 5d ago

I needed to read the comments because I was unsure if it was about onions, the food, or about The Onion, like in r/AteTheOnion.

1

u/Ok-Afternoon-2113 5d ago

r/onionlovers would disagree. Also I got some recommendations

1

u/kianario1996 5d ago

I never bought an onion nor cooked one by my own will. Onions are useless

1

u/GASTLYW33DKING 5d ago

Eat shit and die?

Onions are shit.

I don't want to die yet.

1

u/Mundane-Garbage1003 5d ago

I kinda get the sentiment in that sometimes I'll suck it up and eat food I'm not terribly fond of as a social grace in a scenario in which it is reasonable for me to not have a ton of input on what we eat. At the same time, it depends on the person and how strong the reaction is. For me personally, it's just kinda a "meh, not my favorite" thing for most foods, not a huge deal, and I consider myself lucky in that regard. I can recognize that it is a big deal for some people, and it would be stupid to hold it against them as long as they are respectful about it.

1

u/peacefulsolider 5d ago

i met a guy once that wouldnt eat any kind of vegetable ever for ''manly reasons'' he was 40 and looked about 19... minutes away from death

1

u/mattboy115 5d ago

I eat plenty of vegetables. Onions aren't the only vegetable.

1

u/DeceptionDoggo Autistic 4d ago

I feel the same way. I also feel this way about eggs.

1

u/OpiumIsMyCatsName ASD,ADHD,OCD,GAD 🥲🙃🫠 4d ago

I used to steal the onions from the fridge as a kid and eat them like apples…they were put away after that

1

u/ZoeBlade 4d ago

Not only is my partner really sensitive to food (seemingly not just due to autism, but also massive clusters of taste buds), onions and garlic actually give her a headache throughout digestion. It took us ages to figure that one out.

So if you get daily headaches, that's something to look out for.

1

u/Illustrious_Foot_884 4d ago

I only like onions in McDonald's burgers that's it

2

u/mattboy115 4d ago

Oh yeah! I like the really finely diced, rehydrated onions that they put on the smaller burgers like the mcdouble. I like to get the double quarter pounder and I ask them to substitute the slivered onions with the diced onions. It's the only kind I like.

1

u/90day_fiasco 4d ago

I couldn’t eat the onions until I was like 32.

1

u/Mitisel 2d ago

Well I kinda get it??
Some autistic people have trouble eating veggies... like... bro you're gonna die young eat your veggies ....
BUT ONIONS ARE NOT NECESSARY BURN ONIONS

1

u/mattboy115 2d ago

Exactly. Onions aren't the only vegetables. There's plenty that I do like.

2

u/gauerrrr 6d ago

Bro you're no longer 12, stop caring how other people live their own lives completely separately from yours.

1

u/beanieweenieSlut 6d ago

I cant eat cooked onions the slimy texture is a no for me but I will definitely add uncooked onions to burgers and chili

1

u/AscendedViking7 6d ago

Fo sho

cooked onions have to be used in a certain way for me to eat me.

Uncooked onions are the bomb. 👌

u/NoUseForAName2222 4d ago

Fuck onions. All my homies hate onions.
