Here, I’ve been pottering around on the ‘net looking for pictures of food today and I came across a lovely photo of a hospital burger, fries, and mashed potato with gravy. I thought to myself, well, hospital food seems to be coming up in the world. Burgers? Fries? In a HOSPITAL?
I assume it’s some kind of anti-health campaign which is designed to get more out of the customer’s pocket. Quite a devious ploy if you ask me.
And on the other hand.. Burgers… Fries… in a HOSPITAL! Whoopteedoo!! I’m going be asking for the triple-bypass burger when I go in for my triple bypass. Seriously.
But then I continued my research and found that actually, good meals are very hard to come across in hostpitals, and have been since the ’40′s.
I think there’s plenty of room for improvement but things are getting better. I mean, there’s all sorts of vending machines in hospitals these days. You can always ask the nurse to grab you a few twinkies or, if you’re a good little soldier perhaps they’ll sneak downstairs to the McDonald’s which so many hospitals have nowadays.
Well on with the visual rapery which is… HOSPITAL FOOD!

This is what good girls at the Angel Sweet Betty Crocker Sara Lee Catholic Ward get for every single meal.
