magictorch i worked there!
I spent a summer working in that hospital food place. I was 'modified textures dept.' Yummy. Basically, get a liver/onion cassorole or chicken chasseur or some such. Add real food to blender = brown slop. Add vegetables to blender = orange or green slop. Most meals centred round mashed (slopped) potato.

Spent alot of time pissing about, joking about the people with no teeth who had to eat this shit, until my boss took me to one side and asked if i was aware that it was for stroke victims.... Straight to hell.

I was terrified that i would end up in hospital for several weeks after, having to eat this stuff.

It was very very cold, i got an ear infection. All for £4.50/hr.

Yay for posting virginity :)
