Jack is a young adult with Autism and trying new foods has always been a challenge for him. When he was first diagnosed at 2 1/2, he started to self restrict his diet and for years he only ate about 7 foods and would not try new ones. His therapist worked for years trying to increase his diet, to no avail. Then lo and behold, this Summer (2022), he was at the store with me and said he wanted to try a new food. I was shocked but thrilled!! This is when Jack’s Snacks was born and since has been a weekly event!! To say we are proud of him is an understatement!! He continues to try new foods each week and rate them on a scale of 1-5 and he has even started to incorporate some new foods into his diet. Our hope is that Jack’s Snacks will encourage others with Autism or those with food challenges to try new foods too!!
