Hospital Food

We hear a LOT of whining from recently-released hospital patients about the food.  "Inedible"! "Every dish was gray" "typically institutional" and the like.  And, being such a critical matter, it often comes up before the quality of, oh I don't know, the actual health care.

I, on the other hand, was most impressed with the food service during my recent stay - prompt, delivered to you, just what you ordered by circling whatever meal menu options you chose, and magically cleared away with no muss, no fuss, and no dishes to do.  Not gray.  Grilled chicken breast Caesar salad.  Hamburgers.  Ice cream.  Good stuff.

Frankly, I liked the "gets delivered, you eat, it goes away" bit.  I'm going to ask my Sainted wife to try this system here at home.
