Thread about people who have a selective diet like retarded whiny children.

In my case, the retarded whiny children in my life are actually my parents. I love my parents but they are simply incapable of eating anything outside of their little hugbox of Indian / Pakistani food because they're originally from India. If they ever want to step outside of their retarded hugbox they only dare venture as far as
>1) Some kind of Thai / Malay food where the curry is sloppy and spicy and very similar to Indian food or
>2) eat some Americanized Italian sloppa twice a year like BJ's, some local italian sloppa, where they complain about prices afterwards or
>3) eat persian food but they avoid the meat and just eat a pound of butter rice like the indians they are

Other wise it is ALL indian slop, once or twice a week.

My mom's retardation

>live in an area with lots of vietnamese pho places that are very good because lots of viets live in some parts of the city
>parents go to pho place down the road

>starts circling her fingers around her temples / forehead like she has a headache
>"The MSG in this soup is giving me a headache"
>I can't handle the MSG. Chinese and Vietnamese people use too much MSG

My dad's retardation about 30 minutes ago which compelled me to make this thread:
>visiting parents across the state
>Know my parents are retarded picky children who cannot live without their Indian curry slop
>I tell my dad that Ethiopian food is just like indian food so I'll take him out for him to try some Ethopian
>make reservation for two
>pull into the restaurant parking lot
>can already see my dad's autistic indian father face frowning and he's ready to throw a pissfit
>we step inside the restaurant
>my dad contorts his entire face and in front of the restaurant host says:

my theory is that theres three reasons behind picky eating
>comfort
some people form strong emotional ties to eating, and as a result form strong emotional connections to certain foods, tastes, and textures. something could be made of the exact same ingredients, but if its not the food they already formed a connection to, they wont like it (e.g. likes french fries, but doesnt like potato wedges)
>saliva
when i was a kid, i hated apple peels, carrots, celery, steak and an assortment of other foods because i could chew them for 20+ minutes and they would just turn into a lump of fiber that was extremely difficult to swallow. when i went through puberty, my saliva got a lot stronger and now steak practically melts in my mouth. barely have to chew it at all. its very possible that certain enzyme or vitamin deficiencies can lead to weak saliva, and as a result, a more limited palette of enjoyable foods.
>actual tastebuds
There is a condition labelled "supertasters" about 25 percent of the population qualifies as supertasters. women are also more likely to be supertasters than men. these people however do not taste all flavors equally stronger than everyone else. some flavors become very overpowering instead of complimentary (vinegar, alliums, etc.) this is honestly the only respectable reason to be picky, but its nearly impossible to prove. also most picky eaters care more about texture than taste, so a lot of supertasters arent picky, and just enjoy food more than everyone else lol.

When you start thinking you know best? Respect your parents. You are young and arrogant.
Take him instead to a good Italian restaurant or american or french bistro, and order their soup, their good garlic knots or bread basket, their sauciest entree. Ethiopian food is NOT AT ALL like curry, and where indians make curry, ethiopians will add sugar to the dish oddly enough, ruin good greens by adding hard boiled eggs in poverty mode. Their injera bread is inferior to every naan or kulcha possible. I too will leave a restaurant before sitting down if there is a bar floor sour smell, or the bathroom wasn't clean enough before I sit down and washed my hands. Goodbye. Furthermore, I've tried ethoipian food 5x when living in DC and it's awful and overrated crap. Afghani food is great there though!

Don't care if people are weird about food at their home but it's fucking annoying to go to a fast food restaurant and it takes them several minutes to rely their autism to the minimum wage worker who absolutely will fuck something up themselves or one of their minimum wage coworkers will. Then the picky eater will get mad and make a scene over slop prepared by minimum wage workers.
Burger King prides itself on making it "you way" but fuck, there's a limit on this, and expecting wagies to get things right is just asking for disappointment. If you want to be finicky, go somewhere a bit more upmarket and at a time when they're not during a meal rush.

I think I was a picky eater as a kid but that was for shit like carrots, spinach, mushrooms, green beans, etc. But that shit is still gross except for cooked diced carrots. But I remember as a kid trying fish for the first time and liking it. So honestly if you eat beef, pork, fish, poultry, and vegetables are you really a picky eater?

I feel sorry for "non picky" eaters. you have no idea what you are shoving in your gob. the nasty vile garbage you eat. sucking down gobs of shit and garbage and asking for more.

having the ability to recreate a recipe purely by smell and taste is a gift. your "secret" recipe is no secret to me.

but you keep coping that those beets are "earthy" and those chitlins are "barnyardy", or that burned coffee is so strong. pro tip the darker the coffee the weaker it is.

seethe at your inability to taste whiskey and wine (for real). keep pretending that you taste (insert made up flavor).

This is exactly my parents. If the food is made by yellow people they won't have it. If you want them to go to some gay basic bitch mediterannean cuisine with some dish like Mansaf they'll have it for sure, but no chance they have bao buns.

I bet it just feels safer to them because med food was a thing before chink food. Im from a country where asian food was more prevalent than med food and the picky eaters here are attracted more to asian food than med food. I guess it also helps if your family is from European descent, med food seems more familiar than some random indonesian noodle dish with coconut curry.

I can't stand up people who bloviate about how much they hate onions or mayonnaise or whatever mundane food, as if i GAF. If you don't like it don't eat it and STFU. And people who turn their nose up at all spicy food are the ultimate pussies.
I was a picky autist kid, I wouldn't even eat pasta, mashed potatoes, apple pie, anything mushy, or had mysterious specks in it, or an uneven texture. But I got over it. It's called being a grownup. You can learn to at least tolerate most foods and if you patiently get used to it, instead of acting like a triggered toddler if a food you dislike even gets verbally mentioned.

In fact, if a person sincerely cooks something improperly, I'll at least try a bit of that just as s gesture of thanks for providing me with food.
