Guest guest Posted May 25, 2006 Report Share Posted May 25, 2006 I decided to have a veggie burger while I was visiting Mom in the hospital last night. It was wonderful and the cashier told me to take anything I wanted to top my burger with from the salad var. I took bets, artichokes, red onions. Next to the salad bar was a rack of chips. No baked chips and 4 rows of pork rinds, plain, chili & lime, BBQ and extra spicy.......now isn't that an awful snack to sell in the hospital cafeteria? That's pork fat fried in fat. I'm happy to see your doctor believes in the vegetarian diet, that is a big start because there's hope he will recommend it to his patients.

I was just checking on the Vegetarian Society website to see what, if anything, was going on in my area and I was pleased to see that Vegetarian Week " and its associated dietary benefits " are being promoted by the National Health Service here in Scotland. My own doctor has been very positive about me being vegetarian, but I am really happy to see that this attitude is also coming down from the dizzy heights of the NHS Health promotion department here. I wonder if this means that food options for vegetarians in hospital is any better. Christie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
