Am I an outlier for hating to eat the same food everyday?

So I have AuDHD (Ik it's not my flair, but I couldn't find it 😔) and I always hear about fellow Autists having texture issues and/or hating to eat different foods, but I'm basically the exact opposite.

With the exception of certain foods (Usually boiled vegetables and specifically peas and green beans, but if their masked by other stuff I usually don't notice), and badly cooked stuff (under/overcooked stuff), I can pretty much eat just about anything. In fact, my ideal food cycle is literally something different every single day. I can eat the same thing for a couple days in a row, but almost never multiple times in a day, though currently I'm kinda poor so I haven't had much options for food.

Idk if it's the ADHD overriding my Autism, or my upbringing or what. I know we're all different and it's a spectrum, but tbh I kinda wanted to just vent this. You can go about your day now, thank you for listening to my TED talk.
