While not everybody has to face this, some of us do.

Caring for elderly parents.

Cooking for them can be a rewarding chore but still difficult,
especially when you are trying to make sure they get all the "things"
they need in their diet and it's up to them to eat it.

I just purchased 3 large containers of Vionate (Jefferspets.com) to add
to dad's food as I cannot always trust him to take his supplements, (he
has memory issues), and he does not eat enough any more to eat what I'd
consider to be a balanced diet. Vionate is a complete vitamin/mineral
powder and there are amounts listed on the container for anything from
baby chickens to chimpanzees.

We are, after all, primates. <g>

The only problem with it is it tends to add a slightly gritty texture
due to the mineral content. I'm eating some of the crab and cheese
omelet I just made for dad to test it out. It's not bad.

Only time will tell...

It's well hidden in scrambled eggs and meatloaf type items.
