I'll CW my food posts when vegans CW theirs (and stop putting "vegan" in their profile as if it was a badge of honor - well, it's actually useful, I know it's people I shouldn't follow)

As far as eating disorders are concerned (although being vegan can be considered one), I understand, but that's about protecting yourself. It's not other people's responsibility to self-censor. However, it is our responsibility to use hashtags more. Honestly, I think they're way more useful than CWs. People should be more mindful into hashtaging their posts (and we should all push more for it, like there's a push for alt-text in pictures). It has the double advantage of allowing people who want to see more about a topic to see more, and people who don't want to see a topic to hide it.

CWs just hide possibly interesting content to all in the event that maybe just maybe a random person could be uncomfortable with something you said. Not a very efficient method.
