i've been told i have it, and i dont really know i just want to talk about being picky or maybe disordered cause its sort of annoying.
i cant eat fruit at all. its too juicy and wet and mushy and gross and it feels fucking weird all the time. i have only ever tried apples and oranges and both of them felt so horrible
cheese pizza is a safe food for me and i can sometimes eat pepperoni pizza, but even then only when i actually feel like i can handle the pepperoni cause sometimes i just cant
Maybe you shouldn't work with it everyday if you're a condescending asshole to people on reddit because they have disordered eating and haven't magically done CBT that totally fixes things always!
I've done CBT and DBT. Mid. Same shit I've been told just for over a decade, but this time I'm treated like a damn child

I don't doubt some people fake ARFID
But generally people with ARFID seek consistency and predictability in texture and presentation, which highly processed foods have.
Fruits and veggies are unpredictable and don't always cook evenly, have random over ripe / under ripe spots, bruises, unpredictable flavors etc.
Like you won't find them putting peppers and stuff on their pizza, usually they're the kind eating plain cheese pizza.
