When I was in the hospital after heart surgery the food was not all
horrible. My first solid food was a shingle of beef. The other meals
were better. On my last stay they kept me on clear fluids and on the
last morning I rebelled. The nurse found me some real food. It may have
tasted extra good because it was the first solid food I had had in a
week. My lunch that day was not bad. I can't say it was better than any
restaurant. It was perhaps as good as some chains.
