Today is the 29/8/2014 and I HAVE been watching the 8 o'clock news on BBC1 and what I see about hospital food sickens me (not the food, but the comments being made).
I have had my life saved three times in The Royal Devon & Exeter Hospital in the not too distant past.
I have always found the food excellent with a wide variety of choice.
There is a varied menu each day so, in my opinion, anyone who moans about the standard of food offered really ought to think again. I believe there are about 900 meals prepared and served each day, with a choice of tea or coffee and biscuits in between meals.
The meals are served on real plates from a 'hot' trolley similar to a hostess trolley. Why not let us hear a bit of praise for the cooks who do the cooking, the staff (often nurses) who deliver the meals to the bedside and, not least of all, the menus. After all, these have been devised by dietitians. I can only speak for the RD&E, not for other hospitals. I expect a lot of people will disagree with my comments and I would welcome any replies.
Come on, lets stop griping and give a bit of praise for a change.Bob Brereton
