Drinks shouldn’t be chewed

  Boba is code for boobs.

  borrowed from Chinese (Beijing) bōbà, name for the large tapioca balls found in the tea, perhaps literally, “large breasts, large-breasted woman”

    For a second, I couldn’t think of anything crunchy and then I thought about the Oreos blizzard And I was like you’re goddamn right, but to be fair I don’t mind Boba either

  boba is slightly insane but those fruity popping pearls are really good and make me feel things

    Ditto, chewy lack of flavor in my drink… no thanks. Those things you are talking about I think I had, they are likely thin coated jolly rancher flavored orbeez.

  The tapioca…I weirdly like it. Except I choke on it. I love the tea itself. I don’t love choking on it, but I forget the boba is in there half the time.

    the choking is the best part

  I like coconut water that bits of coconut in it. I do not like boba tea.

  Texture preferences and dislikes are really weird differences between ASD peeps.

  We go to boba tea shops several times a week. I just order them without boba. It’s just a smooth tasty drink.

  Not sure is being autistic matters in this instance. My wife will not eat grits due to texture but I do enjoy some buttery grits.

    This is the Internet. We’re all self-diagnosed autistic/ADHD here. You wouldn’t get it, neurotypical

  A good fruity drink with chunks of fruit to chew is awesome! I also like to kinda chew on the ice in a slushie, not like rough ice chunks but compacted slush.

  Boba tea doesn’t gross me out, but the balls don’t appeal to me either. Just extra stuff that adds nothing fun.

    There’s so many different types of boba “balls”, and even the “same” ones have different textures and flavours depending on the boba shop you buy from!

    Many boba shops (at least the ones here in HK) also offer an incredible selection of different things you can have in your drink in place of just tapioca pearls, stuff like grass jelly, aloe vera, agar jelly, basil seeds, red beans, pudding, and the list goes on.

    I’m sure you’ll be able to find something from boba shops that tickles your fancy, even if it’s just fruit tea with coconut jelly chunks.

      No, I don’t think I will. It really does fall in the category of just not wanting flavor balls in my liquid drink, the whole concept is unappealing to me.

      Yes, I tried over a dozen times already because my daughter loves boba tea. It just isn’t my thing.

  Not autistic but yeah I hate them. If they weren’t so sticky it’d be better…
