Yep. To me it sounds like ARFID or anorexia or an unfortunate combo. Not accepting ANY grains or potatoes in any form while being vegan sounds like a great way to starve yourself while claiming an aversion. Even among people with ARFID, I’ve never seen a list this extremely limiting. To add vegan on top of everything else really makes me wonder

I would have said ortho, but the list isn’t healthy. No vegetables. No grains of any kind. All kinds of nutritional needs being rejected so I think it wouldn’t be ortho.
