I understand. My little sister is not ASD, but does deal with some sensory processing issues and has textural issues with food. I think anything with a tendency to "coat" the mouth is highly unpleasant for her. Even I am not a fan of that stuff. I can't imagine how this stuff can be pleasurable to consume. But I think they probably don't really taste it - it vaults the gullet so quickly, taste is an afterthought.
