The colour red is important. In my Dementia research I discovered there have been some studies finding those with advanced Dementia diagnosis were better able to feed themselves food presented on red crockery. Colour recognition is lost as the disease progresses so the food often light in colour is therefore contrast against the red plates. Red is also relevant as a direct reference to blood and Vascular Dementia for which there is neither cure nor treatment available.
