are we picky eaters ? or is that a myth I'll drink/eat anything that's well made and is not made of animal or it's infected secretions.

Beer. Coke Zero. Pepsi Max.

I use Splenda to sweeten my coffee. Stevia is awful.

I used to like red wine, but can't stomach it now.

I love Coke and Pepsi - I really hate flat coke and pepsi ( I throw it out or add soda to it to make it fizzier) I like it to be fizzy.

I also enjoy all alcohol especially vodka and cocktails. I like citrus juices.milk (especially chocolate milk), coffee, green tea, water,7up, most mountain dew flavors, Mello Yello, Lift.



Drinks I do not like are
Ribena
Grape Soda
Plain tea
Strawberry milk
Banana milk
Red juices
Dr Pepper (tastes like exactly the cough medicine I had when I was sick)
Mountain Dew Voltage

My tastes have changed over the years.
When I was a kid, I almost exclusively drank Coca-Cola.
As a teen, I relaxed my strictness and Added Pepsi to that.
In my 20's I started getting into coffee also (black).
Around 30, I stopped liking coke/pepsi and went to Mtn dew.
Then after a bit, I dropped Mtn dew and Drank Sprite for a short while, but that stuff was so acidic, it started giving me stomach problems. So, I switched to almost exclusively water.
Then came the red-bull addiction, it took several years, but now I'm up to 4-6 12 oz cans a day (6 cans= 2 Liters)
I still drink some water in with that. I'm trying to stop the red-bull, but that's proving tougher than expected.

What I can't stand is alcohol. Some alcohols like gin or wine, I can't even stand the smell of.
I also don't like any regular sodas/pop anymore. They are not the same since high fructose corn syrup took over.
That stuff is total garbage, I feel gross after drinking anything sweetened with HFCS. Seriously, that stuff needs to be banned, it is not good at all, and I believe is behind a lot of problems like the rise in obesity & diabetes.

I mostly drink water, preferably with lots of ice. I also drink a lot of unsweetened tea, sometimes plain and sometimes with Splenda. I occasionally drink diet lemonade, Pepsi Max, diet Mountain Dew, and diet root beer, but not very often. I also like unsweetened almond milk, and some of those packets that you mix with water (in various flavors).

I hate water/tea with lemon and always get mildly annoyed when waiters plunk a lemon in my drink without asking. It gives it a yucky metallic taste (tastes nothing like lemonade). I don't like alcohol, and I can't stand cow's milk at all. I also dislike regular sugar sweetened beverages of any kind. I don't like pulp in my juice (I'm actually not much of a juice person anyway, but I'll drink it occasionally), but I'm fine with other kinds of textured drinks, like vegetable juices and protein shakes.

I would say that I have a pretty average thirst drive, and I definitely drink a lot. I pretty much always have a glass of water with me. My parents sometimes make fun of me because it means I have to run to the bathroom a lot, but I like to stay well hydrated.

One thing I do know about people is that everyone likes their tea or coffee a certain way. Each time I have a guest round, I always have to ask them how they like their tea or coffee before making any. And most people always like their tea or coffee the same way every time.

I don't have any particular drinking habits. I don't drink tea or coffee because I'm more of a cold drink person. I don't drink alcohol because it doesn't always tend to agree with my stomach. I like fizzy drink, especially coke. Caffeine seems to help with depression for some reason, and it does not affect my sleep. I also like juice, but I don't generally drink juice what you have to add water to, I prefer to buy fresh juice from a carton what you put in the fridge. I have done for years now. I also love milk.

I don't think drinking habits have anything to do with Aspies and NTs. I often hear NTs having a conversation about non-alcoholic drinks and what they can and can't drink or what they do like and don't like to drink, etc.

I like lemonade, milk, chocolate milk, cranberry juice, and Hawaiian Punch. I also drink lots of water, now that I've started trying to cut down on the amounts of sugary stuff I drink. :D I've never liked sodas and soft drinks....I was given one at a birthday party when I was about 3 or 4 (which is awfully young to give kids fizzy drinks, imo) and I had a sip and just flipped out...it felt like my tongue was being attacked by acid corrosion. They STILL taste that way to me. :? I also don't drink wine or beer, even now that I'm "legal"....I don't like the smell and taste of many alcoholic beverages. :eew:

I like to drink water, milk, tea, and most juices. I don't drink soda as much as I used to, although I would have a diet every once in a while. I do not like to drink coffee or any alcohol, because I don't like the taste of either, and alcohol smells bad at times anyway. I also can't drink anything with grapefruit in it because grapefruit affects my anti-seizure medication.
