Storytime!
Years ago, I worked a contract w/ a long-term post-op elders' facility, and learned first-hand that those with dysphagia (difficulty/inability to swallow) can often eat the same food as their neighbors โ provided it's Vitamixed first. ๐ค
The thing is? Aside from the mouth-feel, it tastes exactly the same as a perfect bite, every time. ๐ถ
For instance, a cheeseburger w/ the works becomes an orchestral synthesis of its ingredients, without the chewing. So, no crunchy lettuce or piquant tomato skin, etc., but then again... Those are atypical to the US "burger" at this point anyhow, eh? ๐
Homogeneity isn't always good, sometimes you gotta clear the palate. Compromise would be to blend individual ingredients and put them next to each other
Yep, we did that, too. Despite the slew of exploitive, profit-focused practices elsewise, the nutrition dept made absolutely sure we were a resident-first, shareholders-last kinda team.
