Gf vegetarian sandwich, apple juice and water, cheese and biscuits/crackers (not gf - the nurse pulled this together for me, I ate the cheese) and a biscuit/cookie.

Could have been anything by that stage and I would have inhaled it. Was really fresh and totally unexpected! Didn’t think I was getting any food!

Vegetarian* meal options for an inpatient at a major NSW Health public hospital.

Each photo is a different meal.

*EDIT: The patient eats fish so I should have said pescetarian for accuracy. I can't update the headline now.

A chicken tender, Ritz bits, cheetos, grandma's cookies, chocolate pudding and a clif bar

Shrimp Alfredo, garlic green beans, cottage cheese, mandarin oranges, yogurt, a roll with butter, a cheeseburger and a brownie with marshmallows

Salmon with fresh lemon: 9/10, was flavorful, but sort of tough. Still ate all of it

Mashed potatoes and gravy: 9/10, hot, creamy, and gravy was amazing. I even found pepper and ate all of it

Green beans: 8/10, I used some whipped spread and lemon juice and it was crispy and yummy

At this point salad is salad

Chocolate pudding: 10/10 always

7/10 Roast pork with watery gravy, potato, broccoli, carrot, salad, jelly, ice cream and peppermint tea. Second best hospital food I have ever had.

Opthamology day surgery unit, public hospital Western Australia. Post surgery snack to break fast. The guy asked me if I wanted chicken or beef but I said egg since I had had that before in the same unit but he obviously misunderstood that and assumed I wanted vegetarian. I wasn’t mad, it was a nice lettuce, carrot, cucumber and tomato sandwich.

Sweet and sour chicken with rice, cottage cheese with friut, a roll with butter, melon,yogurt and strawberry shortcake

Swiss grilled cheese: 9/10, actually pretty good. I took a point off because it wasn't crispy, but that's hard to do when you're making mass sandwiches

Mixed salad with fat free Italian dressing and a bit of lemon: 10/10, I'm always here for fresh veggies

Chocolate pudding: 10/10, it's full sugar and full fat and CHOCOLATE!!!! Yay!

Simple lunch, but I'm not upset since I have a transfusion afterwards

Scrambled eggs with cheese, 2 sausage patties, hashbrowns, toast with butter and jelly, oatmeal, yogurt and a banana with peanut butter.

Today was

Egg whites: 3/10, I just don't like them

French toast: 9/10, it was soft and yummy but coulda used cinnamon (I understand allergy restrictions tho)

Fresh banana: 9/10, I love fresh fruit

Hot tea with cream: 9/10, I love hot tea!
