                                According to the National Institutes of Health, Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID) was officially recognized as a distinct eating disorder in 2013. This diagnosis can include behavior where people only eat beige food, a color preference driven by sensory sensitivities, fear, or a general lack of interest in food.
