Riassunto: | This opinion piece takes a critical look at the current state of hospital food, with a focus on the UK’s National Health Service. Some of the unique challenges facing those serving food in this situation are identified; Unlike many other environments, for instance, the hospital/care home setting is one in which undernutrition is a significant issue. The suggestion is made that a number of the findings from studies of high-end gastrophysics may have application as far as the provision of improved hospital food is concerned. A number of concrete recommendations, and low-cost solutions are proposed. |
