There is an ongoing controversy in the UK where the corrupt government is openly neglecting people with ARFID due to sheer incompetence by sectioning them without proper treatment instead of actually using people trained to treat this stupid mental health condition WITHOUT involuntarily committing them, resulting in patents getting abused by grossly incompetent staff.
ARFID is an eating disorder that is pretty much "picky eating on steroids", people with this disorder will not only avoid foods based on smell and even appearance if the food looks gross, but they also struggle to eat stuff based on things such as taste and texture and can find themselves forced to spit out food and can even gag on it, people with this condition are also more sensitive to "food quality" and will not eat stuff if it's not prepared right.
Examples, sorry that all the sources are woke, I could not find anything else talking about this retarded issue:
Have you seen the food in hospitals recently? I have.
It makes prison look good. Toast that's soggy and limp, meals that are barely edible, not even remotely healthy, let's not even talk about the tea. I came out with the craving for a fucking salad, fresh fruit and veg, forget it.
And that was the regular stuff. My mum was reduced to a puree diet in July. A literally stinking microwaved tray of "something". She seemed to survive the 3 months in yoghurt and ice cream.
God forbid the poor people that go in for a eating disorder, nhs food isn't fit for pigs let alone people.
The perfect storm of elimination diet nutrition, a captive audience, industrial scale food preparation, for-profit third party vendors and ruthless cost-cutting.
I thought that was just standard Bri'ish cuisine.
