One of my stays was in a hospital that not only had a nice view, but also had choices like steak and wine on the menu - depending on your condition, of course. So that hospital's food was quite nice, I must say. :o)

Only when I am eating it off of someone else tray - as a visitor...lol

My mother worked as a cook in a hospital when I was young, that is until she became a cook in a school lunch room (true story) Hospital food and school lunch food is what I think of as home cooking..

I've never had any "good" hospital food before, so...no.
by Chopsy the Diver on February 6th, 2008
I work in a hospital and i love the stuff, i have a cooked breakfast every shift and when i finish i'll squeeze in dinner, i'll even eat the spare dinners left where patients have gone but still ordered just in case, just call me the human hoover when it comes to hospital food ;)
by sparkles on February 6th, 2008
Love it,Everything tastes nicer when you dont cook it yourself :)

my sister was in hospital and everyday i would take food for her. she used to give me the hospital food to take home.i must say i did enjoyed it.i didn't know to cook back then,so any food was a treat for me.
by Simply.Dani on December 10th, 2007
It's not that I don't like the food, the smell of hospital food and the atmosphere makes it seem like it tastes bad.
by 89bravo on February 6th, 2008
better than my dads cooking but yes, after a appointment close to the hospital i raid the cafeteria.
by Lovehearts on February 6th, 2008
Actually, yes :)
I like hospital beds more though....
Sorry. Rubbish Cold War Kids reference :)

by EL1 2 on December 10th, 2007
No. I had a friend who used to volunteer in the hospital kitchens. I've heard what happens to that "food".
by Jade on December 10th, 2007
I have had some hospital food that was quite good and some that would gag a maggot.
by Anonymous on October 9th, 2009

After three months of the same crappie NHS food I was actually suicidal, I went on a hunger strike until they let me bring my own stuff in, well not me precisely, but my friend... it tastes of processed vomit, it was horrid, I’m never going back to hospital.
by Carmella on December 18th, 2007
The hospital I used to receive treatment in had the worst food ever, the smell made me gag... even the staff hated serving it because it was so disgusting.
But, they had a cafe (well, they had several cafes) downstairs that sold the most amazing jacket potatoes and hot chocolate, so as long as I had someone to get it for me and money to pay for it, it was great.
I feel sorry for the people who don't have the money or people to get better food though. The thought of relying on NHS food for nutrition sends shivers down my spine.
by Jennie thanks all of you ABers on December 10th, 2007
Hell No...it tastes Disgusting
by Firebrand on March 24th, 2008
I have been in some hospitals where the food is brilliant.
On average it is not great.
by GiraffeyedDonor-ish on June 3rd, 2008
No...but I guess the fact that if you're eating it, you're in the hospital sick, so that doesn't help add to the experience.
by meowry on July 24th, 2008
Nice time to take up anorexia.
by Jacob on March 24th, 2008
No it's disgusting. I was in the hospital a year ago and after ordering chili that ended up having a two flies in it i stayed off it and ate fast food for the rest of my stay.
by Drastic on December 18th, 2007
You know, some of it can be ok, but generally no I don't like it.
by Chopsy the Diver on December 18th, 2007
I love the grub served up at the hospital i work in :)
by JamesD on December 18th, 2007
Is that a threat? LOL! :-)
by Anonymous on December 18th, 2007
Are you kidding. I stab myself near fatally every week just to get some. Love that Jell-o and soup that tastes just enough like mouldy socks to make you want to throw up.
by maS elcnU on July 24th, 2008
Never been a inpatient in a hospital, but I heard many horror stories about it.
My 2 cents.
by ALF - Gordon Shumway on December 31st, 2008
The food in the cafeteria, of the local Hospital, is not bad! I've never been a Hospital resident though. Ever ... anywhere.
by Daniela_15 on February 9th, 2009
Its not as bad as some people say it is, but it isnt great.
by GrOvyBab on February 16th, 2009
NO!!!!!!!!!
by redcatt63 is around here somewhere...... on December 18th, 2007
ewww, no! of the handful of times I've been in the hospital, I can't say that anything I had tasted very good. in fact, it had very little taste at all!
by jazzymo on February 9th, 2009
mums there now and it doesn't look remotely appertising!
by ChuckExAnon on February 6th, 2009
Compared to years past, hospital food has improved a lot...a LOT! [Of course, I can recall the day when a hospital room cost $19 per day...n' ya ain't gonna get surf and turf on that! :-)]
by HeadAlpha on January 30th, 2009
It reminds me of public school food. Luckily I have never been hospitalized, knock on wood.
by anddeb on February 6th, 2009
No. They make sure you get well by giving you that garbage and you heal fast to get out of there so you can have some ral food to eat.
by Discipline on December 31st, 2008
I'm easy, as long as it's vegetarian for me.

Are we ignoring chocolate? Dark chocolate is very healthy. You should have some every day along with walnuts or almonds. I do, do you?
