You would not believe the cosmic timing of how i find myself while reading this.
Id definitly label it sensory unpleasant but i would argue it cannot be compared.
The experience of both is one all humans will experience many times starting from childhood. Its a bad thing but its one you know, The experience is predictable and often the same as other times.
The experience of food is much more diverse and thus unpredictable. We all have experienced eating a “trusted” dish made somewhere else to find ourselves betrayed by “different brand”, “extra ingredient” or “chopped in unusual sizes”
Hyperbole aside (autistic adults may learn to get used to some of those suprises or mask their way trough), the exact sensory experiences are unique to each individual and many autistic people will chase certain stimulation as well as avoid it.
Some i know are:
Walking barefoot, Roller coasters, Storm chasing, And for me, somewhat ironically, some forms of fine dining.
