Is food in your country's hospitals that bad?
Oh my, someone answered I already forgot about this thread :D Yeah, it looks like, funny, my sister was once after accident in hospital - she lost 2 kg of weight ;-;

That's pretty bad.
All that I remember of food from my last hospital stay was jello that was the consistency of leather. Worse than your average mess hall jello.

At least somewhere else is just as bad :P
But don't worry

Eh, in my country, the food is at least recognisable and not all bread.
It's still pretty bad though, as it has no flavor most of the time.

There is a joke
"patient says
-that healer is awful
nurse answers
-it's your dinner!"

I'm from Brazil, and I swear my reaction "well, if your biggest complaint is about the food..."
We have free healthcare, but many times, well, good luck getting help there. And with much corruption, there are doctors who are paid and never show up, equipment that rots away before getting used... sigh

Same stuff in poland mate, if you really want to be cured you must pay, otherwise you will be waiting months and months.

In Poland you can get refunded for abortion or in vitro, and you have to wait months or years to finally start the treatment, cause queues are enormous.

Here too, but you know, there are always excuses to do one.

The running joke is that if you need one (e.g. you were raped or the baby will be retarded) you will have to wait at least a year to get one scheduled :P

Poland is all of absurds, goverment is just a bunch of imbecils, so it doesn't even surprise anyone.
The most absurd thing I recently found was that ''on the street, near guy's garage was a huge hole so that guy filled it with rocks and stuff, but after few weeks he was judged and had to pay a fine'' lol. :P

The last time I was in hospital in the UK the food looked pretty nice. I wasn't allowed food because of my illness but I got to watch my relatives enjoying my meals rather than letting them go to waste.
Comment has been collapsed.
Yeah, the site I mentioned sometime posts food from other countries, and I was in the UK on my own.

Bread burger for the win. In Australia it's already difficult to live, everything wants to kill you, all those spiders and other weird creatures, hospitals should be money makers then :/

Is that fifth picture the "bread burger"... which is literally a piece of bread sandwiched between two other pieces of bread? O_o
Comment has been collapsed.
Yes! Here you go, in polish language we call that as a ''bułka z chlebem, padłeś powstań!" which is adnotation to power ade ad :D

Was in hospital twice last year. The food wasn't excellent but compared to your pictures I now feel like it was first class top notch cuisine they served. Should have taken pictures, but I didn't. Didn't feel all too well...
Why are you in hospital?
Comment has been collapsed.
I'm not in hospital, but I got pissed off because of those pictures and I had to share it :/
And hospital in my town is not even hospital... it's graveyard.

Description says ''Aspen Res for 4-year contract for ''feeding'' patients earned only 6.5 million euros"
Comment has been collapsed.
No wonder, they obviously save money by giving the patients less food lol :D.
Just check that bone on that plate, there's probably more meat in the marrow than on the outside :D

Kurde! People in Germany complain about hospital food and it's not that good all the time but it's definitely not as bad as this! They come in regularly and ask what you want to eat for each meal, which is like in a hotel. I can't really say what I've eaten in hospitals but it was like a regular meal I'd say.
Comment has been collapsed.
Here too, but hospital has to be private, if it's public it sucks. I remember that word hospital is pretty long in german isn't it? :D
Also, in public hospitals you can't even heal, queues are huge, and even when it's your ''turn'' you're not guaranted to get healthy.
Comment has been collapsed.
In german it is Krankenhaus, not that long I think. :D
That's really bad. I always had to bother them until they would let me leave because they take very measure available to get you healthy.
Once I had an accident just 2 days before my final oral exam of my apprenticeship and I had to convince them to let me leave so I won't have to do it in 6 months when I'd miss it the first time.

Haha, yeah, our country wins in terms of hospital food :D

My dad has been in and out of the hospital and a physical rehab center since early January. He was barely eating anything because he literally couldn't stomach it and they had to use a feeding tube inserted through his nose, then a stomach picc-line for 2 weeks after. It was hell, especially since he was on a special diet of mushy food for months due to a choking risk. Can confirm that that the only thing he has found tasty to be chicken salad sandwiches from one rehab center.

It's kinda funny... Because we can't do anything against this.

I've spent quite some time in hospitals. In my country the hospitals don't serve food, we have both free hospitals and private clinics but if you go to a free hospital chances are you'll die in there, either you'll get the wrong medicine or catch some other disease while you're there. A lot of people die in hospitals here every year from that.

Thanks for condolences, but happily I wasn't ever in hospital longer than to just visit someone :P

Wait, is number 5 "bread on bread covered by bread"?
Comment has been collapsed.
Best form of breadburger, but there was even bread with bread covered bread with bread covered bread. You know, like those with flats in burger king.

Public hospitals food is kinda tasteless here, but at least you can easily recognise it as food.
And the paid ones have pretty decent food.
But that bread sandwich just looks like a cruel joke.

For them it's fair enough - patient will die faster with that food.

We eat ourselves in hospitals

Wow, I ate better than that in the military when I was in Iraq, a damn combat zone. That food looks atrocious.

I know, military food mostly is not that tasty, but has a lot of calories...

Yeah, cue in some Xzibit meme on that one. Although the first picture is somewhat reminiscent of what they gave us for breakfast in our high school dorms 12 years ago. That was the only place I almost threw up from the mere sight of a... for a lack of better words, piece of "food".

Always cheers me up, I always wonder if those that get it even eat that thing :D

I work at a hospital and I usually eat what we give our patients. Chicken pot pies with gelato ice creams, lasagna and a salad, tacos, burgers, BBQ Chicken, a bunch of other tasty food.
Perks of working as a dietician is all the food is free. Been saving thousands on lunch since working there.

Here in Poland there is a rule - never injure yourself, you don't wanna go to hospital! (there even was a tv show mocking hospitals)
This is just unbelievable, but in ''modern'' country you get nothing for dinner! Yes, nothing.
Mostly in hospital you get tons of bread, mush of someone else's poop, and little piece of cucumber...
Sad thing is that catering companies are paid millions of PLN.
Patients are actually making fun of it, cause it's too late to cry. The most popular dish is ''bread burger'', I bet you can assume what it looks like.
Tell me, what you get in hospitals in your country for dinner (I would appreciate if you would post photos)? What do you think about it at all...
