So for the longest time I thought I was one of maybe a handful of adults who were picky eaters in the extreme. I recently found this and a number of other sites whilst trying to find ways to help myself (it's been years since my last attempt and the new info is astonishing) and I finally feel like I'm not alone anymore. Eating out is always a nightmare for me, but one I'm accustomed to, (mom working late nights and dad can't cook) and so even now at 25 I just learn to deal with the comments from well meaning friends and family. I'm so grateful to know that it's not just me anymore. I still don't know if it's just me being a picky eater, or if it's worse than that, I have trouble listing out more that 15 that I eat, and have had foods drop out of my list over the years. I'm down to boxed mac & cheese, plain pasta, hot dogs, and apples.
