My feeding habits really have not changed that much, but I find myself drinking much more water than I used to. I’ve been trying to limit my non-water consumption, and I feel great since I never drank enough water.
I haven't experience any changes in eating due to COVID, other than adding regular vitamin and mineral supplements. However, I stumbled across something that has made me ponder my eating habits more in the past couple weeks: It was an article about dietary preferences of people with autism. I've always been a finicky eater and never understood it. I have very, very strong aversions to a lot food smells, textures, etc....and it's something I've never really talked about. This article listed a very limited number of food preferences that fit me perfectly. So now I've started contemplating my diet more in recent weeks and how it may correlate with other aspects of my life: shy awkwardness, rigid adherence to things like grammar and formality, a need for quiet to de-stress after work, etc... I'd never been diagnosed as being on the spectrum, and now I wonder. Sorry, slightly OT.

Autism and diet is one of those areas that people deal with in different ways but I think it's quite individual in many cases. I was more finicky as a kid than I am now, but I have issues with textures.
