This type of texture aversion is not uncommon with people who have sensory processing or autism spectrum disorder and there's a lot of people who don't fall within those groups but have some of those traits in the same way. Aversion to the texture of meat, mushrooms and tomatoes are quite common. Sometimes this goes along with pica, which is the tendency to want to eat things that others consider not edible like cardboard, dirt or rubber.

Let me tell you about the horror that is vanilla pudding with vanilla ice cream. The textures clash in a way that is just.. terrible. But also kind of interesting.

Aversion to the texture of eggs, dairy products, meat, or fungi (mushrooms) is relatively common so probably not.

That's great to know. Whenever I tell people my problem with mushrooms is that I can't stand the texture, they look at me like I'm a total weirdo.

I know a few people that really have an adverse reaction to oatmeal. The texture makes them nauseous.

This is likely because the consistency is somewhat like the consistency of vomit.

I like oatmeal (or porridge as it’s called here), but I can understand why people wouldn’t.

I love the taste of oatmeal in milk but can't stand the texture. The way I eat is very slowly with a small spoon. Since COVID, I've been eating milk+oatmeal every day (powder milk and oatmeal have almost infinite life) so I definitely got better at eating it. But I still can't stand putting a big spoonful of it in my mouth, even though I love the taste and smell!

I don't think I'll ever look at oatmeal the same now :/
