Picky eating habits that make no damn sense.
Do you find yourself not liking a specific food but only when it's prepared a certain way?
For example, I don't like candied yams, but I like sweet potato pie. I also don't like coconut flakes, but like coconut creme pie (without the flakes). Orange juice is gross because "It looks like uncooked scrambled eggs." Hate peas, but loves pea soup. Can't stand oatmeal but love granola cereal. I don't like eating tomatoes whole like an apple, but will eat them sliced. I don't like apple sauce, but love eating apples whole.
Tf is my problem?

Also, crunchy peanut butter is gross on bread, but fine on crackers.

I ignore other’s food quirks and I surely never cater to them.

I hate peas and love pea soup, too, OP. You sure have a lot of food quirks, but I think a lot of them have to do with texture.

Can't eat bone-in meat or poultry. Can't stand the texture of most seafood, e.g., mussels, squid, oysters, and shrimp. The thought of lamb, venison, and goat creeps me out for some unknown reason. No hot desserts or beverages. Cold or room temperature only. Ham terrifies me.

R7 again, adding that I hate peas because they pop when you bite them and they're mealy inside. I also hate cherry tomatoes because they pop and have wet slime inside. I like regular tomatoes pretty well.

Those are quite different peas. I like both unless canned. Yuck frozen only for the green ones.

I dislike eating cake and ice cream together.
Separately, I love eating both.

I like orange juice but not oranges. I’ll eat peanuts, peanut butter cookies, and Reese cups but I won’t eat peanut butter.

I always eat dinner dishes one by one. (If I had a side and a main course, I always eat the side first, before even trying the main.)
Similar to R14, I despise peanut butter by itself, but Reese's-style peanut butter cups are one of my favorite candies.
I can't eat cooked fruit, e.g. an apple pie, without feeling queasy – meaning ANY type of fruit. I have no problems with raw fruit.
I'll happily guzzle cum till the cows come home, however.

OP You have a hypersensitivity to textures
Surely you have realized this
You have a bias toward sweet flavors being expressed through smooth textures like coconut creme. They have to be extremely smooth because even the slight coarseness of applesauce or oatmeal irritates you. Even the aversion to orange juice is based on a visual association with a textured food, scrambled eggs; or disgust to pulp in fresh squeezed or homestyle variations.
I would say you had high functioning autism but someone with high functioning autism would have already seen the pattern.

I’m having food obsessions on semaglutide and terzepatide (I’ve mostly take sema, but tried terza twice.
I never, ever took Sema and Terza together because that is a good way to end up in the hospital. Never do 2 GLPs at same time,
I started out eating tiny cinnamon cakes for breakfast. For month. That’s all I could eat. Then after about 3 months I couldn’t stand them anymore and switched to Thomas’ toaster corn cakes. Ate those for about 3 months. Couldn’t stand them anymore and switched to La Boulangere Pains Au Chocolat Croissants. When I get to shop at Trader Joe’s I buy chocolate covered almond biscotti.
I’ve been obsessed with beans, cut up franks and dark mustard for dinner. And Trader Joe’s thick turkey slices in a sandwich for lunch.
