I am a very adventurous person, and I have found that it is an Aspie trait to be curious about pretty much everything.
Yet there are many, many everyday things I have never done, especially when it comes to food.
Things I have never eaten or tried – not a comprehensive list:
- donuts
- lobster / crab
- chewing gum
- eggs (except for in fried rice)
- ice cream except for plain vanilla, french vanilla, chocolate and neapolitan. Definitely never with nuts
- banana
- grapes
- kimchi
- sauerkraut
- any raw fish (and I’ve been to Japan twice)
- cheezels
- black pudding (but I have eaten haggis many times)
- rabbit
- goat
- any salad that has dressing
Things I have not experienced, that many/most people my age have:
- massage
- bungee jump or skydive
- rollercoaster or any such ride
- listened to an audiobook or podcast
- had an operation
- been to a funeral for someone I cared about
- been on a cruise ship
- be tattooed
