agree:)
plus, what a misleading article - it's not serving this food to patients at all!

Hospital food is horrible. When I went in last time I came out weighing almost a stone less after a week. I hadn't even noticed the weight loss until I got dressed to leave and my jeans seemed huge on me. lol

[bednobs]

i think it must depend where you live. Last time i was in hospital, the food was lovely, three courses every day

[daffy654]

It was Blackpool Victoria hospital bednobs. We were given menus to choose each meal from but the portions were tiny. I didn't like a lot of what they offered so lived on mostly soup with a bread roll, crackers and cheese and fresh orange juice.

My problem headwreck was that I only weighed 7st11lb when I went in, I was 6st13lb when I left and looked like an anorexic.

Would any other ABers like to defend hospital food. In my humble opinion I find it lovely, and have never had any complaints at all. Losing a stone in a week is amazing, daffy, even if you did not plan this. Perhaps hospitals should double up as health farms, and then charge people for this service.

[daffy654]

I guess you posted before I added my last post jonny, 6st13lb is not a healthy weight for an adult woman.

[bednobs]

in ours (royal berkshire in Reading) you can chose the size of portion (and believe me, large really is large) It wouldn't be the kind of food i would eat at home, but i gave their casseroles and stews a go and they were lovely. Soup as a starter for the main meal, sponge puddings and custard for afters most days, plus snacks like fruit or cheese and crackers or cake to order to eat through the day - it was yum!

[bednobs]

the only thing i found a bit strange is that the main hot meal was at lunchtime, which is unusual for me. They also had a ward fridge in which i put some fruit and dairylea so i could have some cheese biscuits and spread on the odd day that i didn't like any of the choices

last hospital food I had was okay, but the miserable sandwich they give you in the evening is horrible.

since when has a fry up been junk food?

[JonnyBoy12]

I take it all back, daffy. You are right that is not the correct weight for an adult woman, and yes I did post before you. Something is very wrong there, and I did not mean to make light of your situation. Sorry for any misunderstanding.

<<<Cardiologist Dr Aseem Malhotra said some NHS trusts are offering fry-ups to heart attack patients,<<<

<<<<There’s this paradox where we’re trying to save lives, yet patients are being served unhealthy food.<<<

Eddie.....nothing equivocal about those quotes.

I have been in hospital only once so far, thank goodness, the food was awful, I ate nothing!..........just could not!........it was really dreadful!.........

[ELVIS68]

When I was in hospital to watch my missus have my two kids I didn`t even get offered a cup of tea!

[snags]

CD spent the night in hospital earlier in the week and the food was terrible: evening meal was a dry, tepid pork chop, an undercooked microwave jacket spud and a chunk of undercooked grey cauliflower. Next morning was soggy toast and jam (how they managed to get the toast soggy is a mystery)...

I've got to go into hospital mid April and am dreading it. Our local hospital food is like slop. I'd like to see a fry up.
