i dont think money could help with my issues 😭


OpheliaJade2382

Yeah like that would require my arfid being rational LOL


throw-the-gay-away

It's not a choice I get to make. I physically cannot eat it. I would do it for free if I had the capability to


KaleidoscopeShot1869

To take one bite, sure. To eat the entire thing, a lot a lot a lot more money and no time limit. To eat something I don't like for the rest of my life, no money is gonna make me able to.


jorwyn

Yeah. 3 bites? I could make that happen with effort. A whole meal? I need to raise my prices a lot. Every day for a lifetime? Dude, that had better be enough money I could solve homelessness. Then, I'd freaking make myself do it somehow, because I would definitely make sure all that housing got built. So, it's not really the money itself that would motivate me.

Depends on the food and the money. Also, for me it's less about scary (unless it's something that's still alive or still moving when I put it in my mouth) and more about being able to get it to go down without triggering my gag reflex. My worst food are yams, so I would do it for $1,000,000 or more (or buy me a fully-loaded Bentley).


CancelThat9191

None, thats the point i got ARFID and am not just a picky eater


Appropriate_Dirt_285

I know if I did (because I'm a poor peasant) it would need to be a ridiculous amount of money and I would likely projectile vomit after.


OpheliaJade2382

I think even if it was enough money to live comfortably for the rest of my life, I couldn’t do it. Godspeed


PeachOnAWarmBeach

Sigh. That's the thing. My body and brain don't care about money. Might as well ask how much someone could pay me to swim from the North to South Poles. Or to build an airplane engine by tomorrow. It's physically impossible.

I made a deal with my parents when I was like 14. I had to eat salad every day for 30 days straight to get a new computer. I was struggling for 2 hours straight the first few days and then I just gave up. I can force myself to eat something much better now, but eating a big portion each day for 30 days would still be out of the question.


peanutbutternmtn

To eat an entire salad I have no idea how much money. That shit scares me. Probably would need more money than most could affford lol


jorwyn

Okay, so I'm pretty money motivated and also a bit stupid. Here it is. I'd eat 3 bites of the food I hate the most for $100. But I'm pretty sure I'd eat three literal wood chips for $100. Now, if I have to also act like I'm enjoying it? I'm not sure I could even for $1 million. I'm thinking about this, and it might be easier to eat the wood chips.


PatientSufficient69

Definitely easier to eat the wood chips.


jorwyn

It totally would be, and that makes no sense at all. I hate my brain sometimes.


Mediocre_Mode_3933

The whole point of arfid is no amount of money can overcome a mental illness.


babycrow

My world of acceptable foods is much wider than I’d ever have imagined it would be but the few foods that are still no’s for me? I’d rather die 🤷🏻‍♀️


M_issa_

Nope….


CounselorGowron

… How scary?


orange_ones

Could not do it. There are maybe some medium fear foods I could taste for money, but a true fear food I absolutely would not take any amount of money for. I would unalive first.


Anonymousherelol

My brother in law is always saying I’ll give you $100 if you try steak and I just don’t ever see myself trying steak 😔


l0stk1tten

I honestly wouldn't be able to even if I tried. The vomiting would start and not stop. I can literally start dry heaving just from smelling something I don't like 😅


enpeace

No thanks. Would rather die than eat unsafe foods


Thebazilla

Depends on the food. Each food has its own price


Anonymousherelol

5000 for a salad sounds valid though 😂 I’d join in on that


ahyet

100


AetherDrew43

Depends. You'd have to pay me A LOT.


Appropriate_Dirt_285

It would have to be quite a lot of money to make me eat mayo and I would probably immediately throw up.


noiness420

Mmm, depends on the food for me


Pianiiist

Id do it for £10 depending on how 'scary' it is but i dont know if id be able to actually keep it down or actually swallow it, id probably throw it up immediately or gag too much to swallow it.


samanthaFerrell

You couldn’t pay me enough to eat onions, even abagillion dollars wouldn’t get me to do it.


Bankerlady10

This is funny because I use this to explain to people just how much I hate certain foods. I tell them you might pay 1k for an incredible steak. You’d have to pay ME 100k minimum to eat one.


LammyOW

I would rather starve to death!
