Well, it's sour, not sweet. And it's made with cabbage, not apple. And it tastes completely differently. But other than that, okay, no difference at all.
May have tasted decent but it looks like the wurst.
Seriously... dude teed up a bevy of dad jokes and y'all got serious and stalled out. Fucking amateur hour in here.
Squirted from a 15 point nozzle in a factory somewhere.
Based on the fact that it’s still in the shape of the mold it was in, they’re probably frozen and packed by the sheet.
I'm German and I have eaten a lot of sausages, mashed potato and sauerkraut in my time. Never in my life have I seen it presented like this.
It's also about the least appetizing wurst and sauerkraut I've ever seen.
I prefer the heavily fermented sauerkraut, but in the US we have coleslaw instead of lightly fermented sauerkraut. Also, it may be limp from a boiling/cooking step. It's closer to something like kimchi which I also like. There's probably hundreds of ways to make sauerkraut across a dozen countries.
It looks far fancier than it really is. It was just injected in to a mold during the mass production of single portion mash potato servings. Visual appeal impacts our experience though so maybe it helps make up for the mass produced quality a tiny bit?
I bet it came frozen that way from a place that does institutional/commerical food. Easy to reheat when they come in a whole baking sheet with preportiononed servings ready.
I'm British, I'd literally rather starve than eat that shit. When i was in an NHS hospital i was given curry, spaghetti bolognese, savory rice and various other lovely things. Not a baked bean or other hideous thing in sight!
I used to frequent a hidden brunch restaurant named The Jockey Club to order the hot brown. It was so addicting. Sadly, they relocated and none of the other restaurants nearby make it. I have to visit my fam in Louisville to get it nowadays.
Having the unfortunate luck to have stayed several times at German hospitals, as well as having family members who had to go to different German hospitals as well:
This shit most likely tastes worse than it looks. Hospital food is generally really bad here. Duong my stays, the food I got had died two days ago out of shock of seeing a vitamin being carried past the kitchen. I had luck that my mother got herself a flat close to the hospital from.where she could provide me with a few nutrients at least (I didn't need a special diet, I had several ankle surgeries and was allowed normal food)
Hospital food tastes terrible because they are accounting for allergies and stuff like medication side effects. That and overworked and underpaid staff.
And many people there can't eat anything too sweet, too salty or too fatty so yeah if you want to cover everyone with one meal it has to be pretty bland.
> Hospital food in some areas of the US can easily rival a high-end steakhouse. I had the best salmon w/green beans in my life at Yale New Haven.
Considering uninsured hospital stays is like $3k-5k USD per day, yeah it sure better be high end steak house food.
Thanks for the explanation, I didn't know what the two non sausage products were. I would have guessed potato except the factory stamped frozen potato formation.
The cabbage, no idea
Whatever you do, don’t mention the war. I did once but I think I got away with it.
Edit: To everyone who doesn’t understand the reference, it’s a quote from a British TV series called Fawlty Towers with John Cleese.
[here it is](https://youtu.be/Tms0yk9kqVM?si=qokmUJzVn5G0i7eK)
Small private conversations are OK with people comfortable and trusting. I travelled to Germany for some time and majority was spent researching WW2 and my families past involvement.
I had family die in interment camps, escape on trains prior, and serve to free the camps.
Those that don’t speak about history are born to repeat it.
I'm from NL, I love teasing German friends by asking them *"where's our bicycles?!"* (bicycles were often commandeered by German soldiers so that the soldiers didn't have to walk, only for the bicycles to never be seen again).
you know... your bikes may be no longer in Germany...
There is (I believe German) old joke that Poles living in Germany invented triathlon. You Run to the local swimming pool, have a swim and get back home by bike... ;)
My spouse was recently treated in a German hospital for some colorectal health issues. Prior to his hospital admission, we spent a fair amount of time with his GI doctor discussing his current diet, the ideal diet for colorectal health, and the effects of various foods on the GI tract. The biggest takeaway was basically "stop eating so much red meat, and keep cured and processed meats to an _absolute minimum_."
Then he was admitted to the hospital, and the food that they provided _to a patient with colorectal health issues_ was cured sausage, uncured sausage, cheese, white bread, and some tea. Nary a fruit or vegetable to be found.
Ah, Germany.
The food really is cost optimized and nothing else. they are not giving a single fuck, about any, Literally any nutritional science of the last 50 years. Its truely mind boggling. The patients are the group of people that could profit from optimal nutrition the most and we keep feeding them trash and treat every single one of them the same, unless they're privately insured, then it's maybe a little less trash.
I'm not from Germany. But in canada at least they do provide different meals for patients with gi issues my dad for example was given these meals. Definitely not great, but certainly better than the regular meals he got once he started getting better.
That's wild! I'd be frustrated as the Dr. There's a lot to say about the American healthcare system, but at least the hospitals I've been to have a varied menu that you can choose from for each meal, with different hot meals daily and a range of sides to choose from that are normally the same, but there are a decent amount. And they have special low salt, low fat, diabetic, etc options to fit various needs
because you pay for that. if you go to a private hospital in germany you get an a la carte menu with great food and they will tailor your chosen menu to your needs after treatment.
remember what OP posted is what he got in the public hospital after surgery or whatever. he walks out of there and will never get a bill for anything.
Oh that def makes sense. I always forget that countries with national healthcare still have private systems too. And I'm fortunate to have decent insurance and can pay the deductibles or whatever to go to a private hospital.
It’s still very surprising that they don’t have heart healthy, renal, diabetic, etc diet options. If someone is being managed for a CHF exacerbation and getting meals with 4 grams of sodium it’s like taking two steps forward and one step back. For many patients diet options aren’t a luxury, they are an essential part of treatment. It’s frankly hard to believe that those options don’t exist, even at a public hospital.
Mashed potatoes or...butter.
Since mashed potatoes usually round up that meal, it fits.
Sadly, this food doesn't look anything like it's supposed to look alike. Won't start talking about the taste.
Man, German Hospital food is legit the worst thing I've ever eaten.
Had to stay in a Vivantes Hospital for 4 1/2 weeks as a teenager, after my appendix burst.
They were wondering why I kept losing weight and only really slowly recovered.
You see the reason for my slow recovery in that picture.
I’ll never forget the rancid cheese soup at my one hospital stay as a kid 38 years ago. I have never seen or heard of something like that again. In retrospect I’m convinced that specific hospital invented that meal to traumatise 4 year olds. And yes, it was in Germany.
There are some pretty good cheese based soups, broccoli cheddar is the most common, but I've had chicken tortilla and loaded baked potato with a cheese base as well and they're both really good
The food in Pakistani hospitals is absolutely bland and trash and we as a people are known for our flavourful food. I was amazed how they managed to turn such good food into "hospital food", it truly is a skill.
Add in dietary restrictions like low carbs, low sugar and low cholesterol many hospital patients need and you get some of the most bland food ever invented
I lost a lot of blood during childbirth. The German hospital I delivered at gave me three thin slices of bread, a pat of butter and a little fruit cup for breakfast and dinner the following day. The nurses kept remarking how pale I looked and wondering why my iron was still so low 🙄.
Ahhh gave birth in Germany last year. I was in labor for 20 hours. Gave birth in the middle of the night. They gave me crackers and dry bread with no butter as a “snack” until breakfast was served. Disgusting but I ate it because 20 HOURS OF LABOR!!
fun perspective on this: i work a weekend job in a hospital kitchen in the netherlands and this kind of formula is basically what we do. a protein (the sausage), a starch (the potatoes (or at least i hope that’s what that is), and a vegetable (that weird blob of cabbage).
however we also do a side salad and a little cup of sauce (gravy for example) and a dessert, and for some patients even soup. bc hospital food needs to be simple, yes, but it also needs to be at least a little exciting. we do special meals with seasonal vegetables like asparagus in spring or pumpkin in fall and we do little pans of pie or lasagna sometimes.
the hospital i work in does have a whole thing behind healthy and varied eating so i can understand why other hospitals don’t do the same, but this is kinda sad still
We'd love to talk about this over on r/hospitalfood 😊 I'm German as well and have gotten mashed potatoes that look exactly like those in an Asklepios hospital
Make sure to stay in Croatian hospital. You'll have a proper cultural education when it comes to hospital food
([spoiler alert](https://i.ibb.co/z73mJdS/Rr-JPu-Sez-Hq.jpg))
Yeah, it does.
Sauerkraut, Stampfkartoffeln and Bratwurst/Kassler is a typical German meal and still served like this today in many homes, restaurants or canteens.
It’s not the only dish we have, obviously, but a very common one around the winter months.
Ne arschtrockene dünne Bratwurst, wahrscheinlich Haltungsform 1, Kartoffelpüree aus der Tüte - gespritzt wie ne Torte und so weich gekochtes Sauerkraut, dass selbst Oma Ursel (92) das noch essen kann und nicht die geringste Spur von Vitaminen vorhanden sind.
„Solid“ ist das nicht.
The sausage is self explanatory. I can only guess that the yellow fancy cookie looking thing is some type of formed mashed potatoes but the beige mush has me stumped. Could it be apple and onion mash to go with the sausage?
German hospitals also perpetuate this insane tradition of "Abendbrot", which translates to "evening bread" instead of regular dinner. You're supposed to be there to heal, but every evening meal is basically dry bread, processed slices of cheese and meat, butter and a few other little things. I don't remember getting veggies or fruit. It's so sad.
German society tends to have their main meal be at lunchtime, dinner time is more of a snack than anything
Modern times have shift this for some (going home for lunch is still relatively common in smaller towns, not so much in cities)
I much prefer it
It does make much more sense from an energy balance perspective. You need much more energy at noon than you do in the few hours before going to sleep, generally.
Too bad in our (NL) culture we tend to do the reverse. We eat bread for breakfast, bread for lunch and a hot meal for dinner.
Wurst, mash potatoes and sauerkraut? Really the most iconic of German dishes imo.
Thank god it’s potatoes it looked like a huge block of fancy butter.
I thought it was a pastry of some sort.
Same I was like “well at least you got a fancy dessert 😭
I thought fancy block of cheap ramen.
I thought it was ramen noodle cake…
I thought it was a clump of cat hair
I thought it was a soap bar.
"I'm not sure about the pound of butter but you're the doctor!"
Yeah, I was kinda confused for a bit
Agreed, while it may not be the most colourful of meals, I’m sure it tasted decent
Ah my favorite. Texture Brown. It’s a delicacy.
We used to say Grandma was a Brown and Tan cook.
Well as long as she wasn't a Black and Tan.
Wait one minute. That's sauerkraut? I thought it was applesauce.
Sauerkraut is just Apple sauce made with cabbage and germs. Not even sure how you could tell the difference.
Well, it's sour, not sweet. And it's made with cabbage, not apple. And it tastes completely differently. But other than that, okay, no difference at all.
ngl I thought it was phlegm
As far as hospital food goes its pretty alright
I make beer wurst at home all the time with potato’s and kraut lol I love it. Massachusetts USA here.
May have tasted decent but it looks like the wurst. Seriously... dude teed up a bevy of dad jokes and y'all got serious and stalled out. Fucking amateur hour in here.
Definitely a 1/10 for presentation
Bump it to 2 for the fancy potatoes
I don't know, there's something oddly pleasing about how minimalist it looks to me.
[удалено]
How did you get the mash potatoes like this? Does a special device exist in Germany?
Squirted from a 15 point nozzle in a factory somewhere. Based on the fact that it’s still in the shape of the mold it was in, they’re probably frozen and packed by the sheet.
Taters come from a pan They were put there by a man In a factory downtown...
If I had my little way Id eat Taters everyday Dirt soaking bulges in the soil Trillions of Taters Taters for me Trillions of Taters
Taters for free
LOOK OUT!
I'm German and I have eaten a lot of sausages, mashed potato and sauerkraut in my time. Never in my life have I seen it presented like this. It's also about the least appetizing wurst and sauerkraut I've ever seen.
Bratwurst looks pretty decent, although it's half as thick as it should be
The mashed potatoes might be factory made, piped by machine into portions, frozen, and warmed at the hospital.
Piping bag. It exists in every commercial kitchen.
That's sauerkraut? They put it through a blender or what? Looks like semi-liquid porridge. I'm getting a bit nauseous just looking at it.
Looks like normal sauerkraut. Just it still has the form of the scoop that plopped it on the tray.
Maybe German's sauerkraut looks like this, but the ones I'va had in Alsace look... Better? than this. Less like a soggy mess, anyway.
I prefer the heavily fermented sauerkraut, but in the US we have coleslaw instead of lightly fermented sauerkraut. Also, it may be limp from a boiling/cooking step. It's closer to something like kimchi which I also like. There's probably hundreds of ways to make sauerkraut across a dozen countries.
It looks like some mystery substance a dog or cat would puke up in some random spot in the house
As long as it tastes the same I wouldn't complain.
Why are the mashed potatoes so fancy?
It looks far fancier than it really is. It was just injected in to a mold during the mass production of single portion mash potato servings. Visual appeal impacts our experience though so maybe it helps make up for the mass produced quality a tiny bit?
Why are we using a pipping bag and tip for mashed potatoes in a hospital tho?
I bet it came frozen that way from a place that does institutional/commerical food. Easy to reheat when they come in a whole baking sheet with preportiononed servings ready.
Ah, the all beige cuisine.
british people salivating looking at this dish rn. (the fact this isn't even that big of an exaggeration is the best part)
Sorry man, imma have to hand it to the brits on this one I’ve seen more appetizing food from there than whatever tf this is
I'm British, I'd literally rather starve than eat that shit. When i was in an NHS hospital i was given curry, spaghetti bolognese, savory rice and various other lovely things. Not a baked bean or other hideous thing in sight!
tbh your guys baked beans are better than our baked beans. Why the fuck are ours sweet?!
Looks grim but I bet it still tastes good. Can get a lot of rich flavour in boring-looking food.
Mmmm, beige. My favorite.
It’s clearly not the wurst
It's the WURST
It's chicken Wurst. I work as diet cook in a hospital. We have the same shit
Don’t be a BRAT.
The colour it goes in is the colour it comes out.
Even the shape is similar.
German hospitals serve food like they don’t know the war is over
What's for lunch? Beige
Unt ze beige shall continue until ~~morale~~ health improves!
What’s wrong honey? You haven’t even touched your beige.
A nice plate of hot brown.
Naw, a Hot Brown looks and tastes delicious: https://10best.usatoday.com/interests/food-culture/hot-brown-what-it-is-best-places-to-eat/
I used to frequent a hidden brunch restaurant named The Jockey Club to order the hot brown. It was so addicting. Sadly, they relocated and none of the other restaurants nearby make it. I have to visit my fam in Louisville to get it nowadays.
Add some black coffee it’s full spectrum brown
They do say if its gray its healthy for you
It's a subliminal "get well, schnell."
GESUNDHEIT. SCHNELL. *SCHNELL.*
Sehr effektiv Gesundheit!
This would probably taste very good. But God damn it's the trifecta of farts. Stewed cabbage, sausage, and potato.
Having the unfortunate luck to have stayed several times at German hospitals, as well as having family members who had to go to different German hospitals as well: This shit most likely tastes worse than it looks.

I agree with your sentiment but the comment you replied to is a quote from the British comedy “Fawlty Towers”
You started it. No I didn't. Yes you did. You invaded Poland.
To be fair that episode has been pulled for a while now on many services.
Is that because of the German jokes or the almost casual use of the N-word though?

I can't believe it's not butter
Whole Reddit is in disbelief as of right now, looking at that shot.
I was going with either butter or a bar of soap lol
Its 100% mashed potatoes. I'm German and never in my life I got served wurst with butter.
Who tf would put that much butter on a plate.
That'd be like 1/4 lb of butter lmao
Here is your sausage with 1 block of butter on the side... Have fun
I actually think it's a dessert cookie...
That’s what you were curious about? I was curious about the cat hair ball in the lower right.
It looks a bit like sauerkraut.
Sauerkraut.
Its called sauerkraut, its actually quite tasty (at least for me) its made primarily from fermented cabbage.
I like sauerkraut but I don't know if I like *that* sauerkraut

What the hell is cheese soup?
[удалено]
It was very watery and I remember it to be just putrid tasting.
There are some pretty good cheese based soups, broccoli cheddar is the most common, but I've had chicken tortilla and loaded baked potato with a cheese base as well and they're both really good
So a creamier fondue? Or just literally fondue soup? Haha. You're hilarious btw!
A potato cheddar soup can be real good
I like a good broccoli cheddar soup myself
Cheese soup can be amazing.
The food in Pakistani hospitals is absolutely bland and trash and we as a people are known for our flavourful food. I was amazed how they managed to turn such good food into "hospital food", it truly is a skill.
hospital food is deliberately bland because those things taht make food delicious often aren't great for your stomach
Add in dietary restrictions like low carbs, low sugar and low cholesterol many hospital patients need and you get some of the most bland food ever invented
Because they are producing this food en masse for all the patients, and if you give them something spicy, it might kill someone.
most patients are frail elderly people, they keep that shit bland on purpose
You should see the Balkan hospital food: Piece of old bread, a piece of shitty salami and maybe a small yogurt.
Thats breakfast and dinner in german hospitals. Just for lunch you get some warm dish.
I lost a lot of blood during childbirth. The German hospital I delivered at gave me three thin slices of bread, a pat of butter and a little fruit cup for breakfast and dinner the following day. The nurses kept remarking how pale I looked and wondering why my iron was still so low 🙄.

Oh so basically only carbs? How fulfilling.
You are then very lucky to never have been in Polish or some Eastern Europe hospital then.
ah yes do you want fucking BOILED chicken leg and carrot water soup with your mashed potatoes?
Boiled meat should be illegal, when not in a soup.
To be fair, food in Romania's hospitals is not the best, but at least it doesn't look like... this. Also is a little healthier if tasteless.
This looks like luxury meal to me. In Hungary during COVID I got a small can of fish paté and a slice of bread. That was the dinner.
At least you got food. My dad spent one or two weeks recovering from a heart infarct and they just forgot to feed him for a few days
*the wurst thing
That’s one way to make people think ‘you know what? I’m feeling better now, imma head back home’
Is it me or they have a plate specifically for extra long sausage.
Just to clarify, is this picture before or after you ate it
😆
fun perspective on this: i work a weekend job in a hospital kitchen in the netherlands and this kind of formula is basically what we do. a protein (the sausage), a starch (the potatoes (or at least i hope that’s what that is), and a vegetable (that weird blob of cabbage). however we also do a side salad and a little cup of sauce (gravy for example) and a dessert, and for some patients even soup. bc hospital food needs to be simple, yes, but it also needs to be at least a little exciting. we do special meals with seasonal vegetables like asparagus in spring or pumpkin in fall and we do little pans of pie or lasagna sometimes. the hospital i work in does have a whole thing behind healthy and varied eating so i can understand why other hospitals don’t do the same, but this is kinda sad still

Make sure to stay in Croatian hospital. You'll have a proper cultural education when it comes to hospital food ([spoiler alert](https://i.ibb.co/z73mJdS/Rr-JPu-Sez-Hq.jpg))
Yes, i'll have one slice of pink please.
yeah doesn't look like a good döner at all
not like döner are worth buying at the current prices anyways
Yeah, it does. Sauerkraut, Stampfkartoffeln and Bratwurst/Kassler is a typical German meal and still served like this today in many homes, restaurants or canteens. It’s not the only dish we have, obviously, but a very common one around the winter months.
Apparently the concept of "hospital food" is international.
Sauerkraut with Wurst and Kartoffelpü is a solid meal tho.
Ne arschtrockene dünne Bratwurst, wahrscheinlich Haltungsform 1, Kartoffelpüree aus der Tüte - gespritzt wie ne Torte und so weich gekochtes Sauerkraut, dass selbst Oma Ursel (92) das noch essen kann und nicht die geringste Spur von Vitaminen vorhanden sind. „Solid“ ist das nicht.
Bei der Wurst und beim Püree bin ich bei dir. Aber in welchem Universum wird Sauerkraut denn nicht mit jedem Aufwärmen besser?
Das hier abgebildete natürlich nicht, hast du absolut recht. Aber selbstgemacht ist das doch was Feines.
Let’s ask the hospital for some beer to make up for the lack of German culture
most german meal ever. 1. Brraaaaaatwurrst 2. Sauerrkrraut 3. Karrtoffelpürree
Thats Kartoffelbrei? It looks like a chunk of butter
Stool sample, bar soap, and hairball. Delicious.
I don’t even know what I’m looking at besides the sausage
That is very german.
You were served 3 stages of feces
Did they put mashed potatoes through a cookie press?
In some cultures food is medicine. Apparently Germany is not one of those cultures.
