I had the choice of regular or sugar - free, did not know there was a "diet" version, lol. Was on a "liquid" diet for a few days, the menu was consomme and Jello, I eschewed the broth for Jello, it was tasty at the time...and definitely a step up from the ice chips I was only allowed for four days....

Currently in rehab in a nursing home/facility (all is well, get out next week), and the food sucks BIG TIME! So I've been ordering food from Amazon Fresh (have a mini fridge in room, micro in the lounge around the corner) and also carryout. Now I know how/why nursing homes cheap out on food, prison food *has* to be better, lol...

Food in the hospital was decent, an a la carte menu and order all you want....still bland though.

OH, if you give nurses/staff nice CHOCOLATE they will do your every bidding, and enthusiastically!
