What to do when sick and board in the hospital?
Take apart the burger they gave me to eat and re-build it so it looks better.

How did I do!

Doesn’t look inedible. Not too bad for a hospital burger.

Bet you didn’t get a beer with that.

Looks pretty darn appetizing for hospital food!

Hang in there, brother.

Burger looks reasonably edible!

Veg looks better than you'd ever get at McD or BK!

Hope you check out of there and get back to the ranch soon!

The rebuild looks good. We have a hospital here with a Black & Blue burger that’s really good. That said I hope it’s not to serious and you get back to smoking soon.

Been a healthcare IT consultant for 35 years, working in hundreds of hospitals and so that many cafeterias. That doesn't look half bad, but looks can be deceiving.

I can relate to the boredom, though. I'm an unruly patient. I don't give the nurses a hard time, but I am quite likely not to be where they think I should be..i.e. in bed.

That looks darn good for a hospital burger!
I'd lose that green stuff personally, but looks tasty otherwise.
Did they let you have any salt?

Hope you're out soon!

BBQ_Mafia,

I hope your stay is short and you get well soon.



Bland saltless hospital food is not something I enjoy but, after surgery with the painkillers is tolerable.

Instant saltless potatoes reminds me of glue in grade school and a beautiful burger with lovely lettuce and tomatoes is a disappointment to me when it arrives saltless and bland, same with the lovely salads with a mystery dressing (what I would have given for some good Ranch dressing!). Institutional cooking for people with dietary restrictions is something I wouldn't wish on anyone.

On a brighter note, I found the Jello tasted really good after a UP3, Tonsillectomy, Rhinoplasty and, Turbinectomy. :sick:

Shoulder surgery was much better even with extended physical therapy because I got to cook my own food at home, with one arm basically tied behind my back!

I spent a week and half in the hospital last summer and that burger looks better than anything I was served. Oddly, everything I ate for the first few days taste way TOO salty.

Send your pic to Gordon Ramsey and ask him.
FYI, its Bored, not Board.
They must have you on some good $hit.

I've had to give up salt, well, supposed to give up salt anyway. :sad:
I've cut probably 90%+ out of what I cook with.
It's amazing how salty most restaurant food is after getting used to low salt cooking for a couple of years.
But, it's lowered my BP to acceptable levels without meds, so I suppose it's worth it. :-D

They probably do have beer. It has to come from the pharmacy. They keep it for alcoholics on the DT's. It's usually the cheap stuff though.

Brings to mind a song by the "eels", its titled "hospital food". If you get really bored check it out. Hope you're feeling better soon!

Nothing like hospital food to motivate you to get better, get out, and eat some real food. :-P

Best wishes on a fast recovery, Guido! :-D
