You could ask Alexandra Morton Hayward who is an expert on brain preservation.

Yep. It's the cognitive dissonance.

The woman's medical condition can cause someone to need a very restricted diet. I don't think this was refusal to eat foreign food, I think it was annoyance at only having a few safe options.
