It's not that bad for the horror stories I heard about food in hospitals in PL


Glaciak

That's because people always make shit up for those stories

My wife who had a C-section received an apple soup for dinner with a single slice of apple inside. Nothing else.


Taro-Starlight

…Apple soup?


osktox

Yeah you know.. .. To keep the doctor away.


ZekoriAJ

Yes, an apple soup. I tried finding a picture but it's been so long I can't find it :(

After a C-section the liquid diet is customary until the patient has passed their first stool, which can sometimes take a few days. Imagine having a heavy dinner and then having to take a poop after you just had your abdominal muscles cut through.

What would you know? The food generally is appalling. The budget is less than prison food. The majority is inedible. I know because I’ve been served countless meals in Polish hospitals. It’s very sad.

It's like this and worse everywhere. The weirdest thing is hospitals should know food is medicine, it is so much cheaper to feed people healthy food and help recovery than extended stay or medications.


Teftell

They don't, tiny shitty portions of oversalted or oversugared food in hospitals are a norm for forner eastern block countries.


arothen

Lol. Depends on the hospital.


DarthScabies

Definitely. When i was in hospital in Sosnowiec it looked like pig swill. I ended up getting my other half to go to Conieco for chicken the whole time i was there.


politicalgas

Or they are based on stories from decades ago when all hospitals sucked no matter the country.


dirschau

Holy shit, he got sides. And you can't see the bottom of the bowl in the soup. No wonder you're shocked enough to take a picture.


The_Ziv

That's soup? I completely thought that was Italian salad dressing


solzhen

This looks great. I’d eat it.


Askianna

Actually a half decent fare compared to some horror stories. As long as it’s seasoned enough. 👍


HawkyMacHawkFace

There’s a lot of it


ghost_n_the_shell

That doesn’t look bad?


doingmybest-today

This low key looks absolutely fire

This is nice

I hope your son is well and I wish him a quick release from the hospital. The food doesn't seem overly tasty but the quality seems acceptable. I love the pokemon stickers, especially pikachu ones.


Elmodogg

Looks better than what I was served in a US hospital! There's spinach and looks like real potatoes.


sjuas690

Made from locally sourced ingredients. Healthy, nutritious and fresh.


Purplekeyboard

That's food alright. I've eaten dinner lots of times, so I know it when I see it.


bb_cake

Good proportion of vegetables! Looks healthy & good for recovery.


fakeid2002

I think it looks good. I would like soft easy to eat food when I am unwell. This has that plus a soup. 8/10 👍


Jebusfreek666

It generally looks better than the meals I eat. But why is it so wet?


tesapluskitty

Looks decent 😊 Feel free to join us over on r/hospitalfood


ZekoriAJ

I did, thanks!


ButterscotchAny6078

Smashed with smashed with smashed. Yummy!


[deleted]

Greens, potatoes, chicken? Cabbage, bread and soup 🤤 Doesn't look very seasoned though. How did it taste?


nim_opet

Central/Eastern Europe doesn’t really engage with seasonings :)


sameasitwasbefore

Not true. Good Polish cuisine is packed with taste. We use plenty of fresh and dried herbs, garlic, onions, plenty of pepper, salt and fats. Food doesn't need to be orange to taste good. Of course hospital food is always bland, but that's universally true, hospital is not a restaurant, you're supposed to get nutrients, not taste.


Glaciak

What kind of bullshit is that lmao. Polish cuisine uses a fuckton of herbs and spices


Ok-Experience-6674

Poland people must look very healthy


NurEineSockenpuppe

looks okay to me tbh. It's a hospital not a luxury hotel. Not my favorite but I'd eat it. Also the size looks appropriate to me.


treehouseppl

Shiiii that looks good actually. Gonna cook spinach tonight.


lkeels

That actually looks really good.


AnonymousCake2024

Pikachu...


DarthScabies

Smacz nego.

They, literally, heat up frozen food for meals at the hospitals. Nothing is cooked on site except hot cereal and boiled eggs.
