I think the corn and fish(?) patties are for people who basically can't chew. I remember reading an article about it quite a while ago, some company was making food paste reformed into shapes for people who have a hard time chewing/swallowing.

It's more appetizing and dignified for the patient than being given a bowl of slurry.

If you have to get hospitalized, do it at Beth Israel. Holy poo poo the food is great and real and tasty.

Yeah, hospital food is under-seasoned mostly because there are a lot of cardiac/low sodium patients. That and we have to go easy on the seasoning for the old folks. If you want it to taste like something, ask for extra salt or whatever seasoning you want for it.

Ahhhhh gently caress. I hated mechanicals (swallowing disorders) when I was a dietary cook. Making tasty food withing the rules was fun though.

(How I lost my job - We had this weird turkey loaf thing. I could cut it up with a plastic spoon, so I didn't grind it. Because, seriously, this was all soft and nasty and sucked and I didn't want to send out turkey pudding. So, yeah, that went well. Ran into one of the nurses a couple of years later, and she told me she was happy I left. When I gave her my patented "blank stare of incredulity" she told me she had been gaining weight during my tenure. I refused to feed the patients anything I wouldn't eat myself, and the nursing staff got special breakfast dishes if they wanted them.)

While I'm somewhat puzzled by the fact that the outside has such a good sear while the inside is totally raw, probably I would eat that steak anyway and enjoy it.

I'm more curious about the baked potato. Is that cheese sauce, or runny egg yolk? I'm leaning toward the latter because the toast makes me think this is some kind of insane Texas Breakfast.

If the sear was darker it could pass for a "black and blue" done steak.

I only got to go to the Ethiopian restaurant here that serves that once before it closed down :negative:

That flatbread you use as an eating utensil is really good- it's got roughly the mouth-feel of a pancake, and those little air bubbles are good at holding the dipping sauces they give you.

I still haven't been able to figure out what causes some demographics to be terrified of steak. My parents both liked theirs medium rare, for example, but my girlfriend's parents are all about the shoe leather sad steak. I usually order medium rare, but I'm happy with anything on the spectrum of "still mooing" to medium rare.

It's like, in my mind I associate well-done steak (meat funeral) as a sad American midwest thing, like hotdish or mayo everything, but I know drat well that people in the northeast do it, too. Is it a lack of understanding about the nature of food-borne pathogens, leading to a scorched-earth policy on meat preparation? I assume that's also why a lot of people way overcook chicken to the point that it crumbles into a perfectly dry mess of fibrous sawdust when you try to chew it.

Chicken poses a salmonella risk because the birds themselves are raised and slaughtered in like especially filthy conditions, on top of being natural carriers for the pathogen.

Beef is the same way with salmonella and e. coli, for example, but due to various factors the risk is much lower with solid cuts of meat, like steak, where you mostly have to worry about pathogens on the outer surface or shallow layers of the meat, which the sear takes care of. The main thing is that you should thoroughly cook ground beef, because every cubic millimeter of that stuff came into contact with the meat grinder, along with who knows what. Basically, some pathogens may survive the lower core temperature of 145 degrees for medium rare beef, but the population is lower or something? I'm not sure about the actual mechanics of the pathogens in this case. I just know that my foodservice certification courses gave a green-light to less done steaks because of the "surface of the meat" thing, while still being super serious about chicken and pork.

I couldn't tell you, but my parents aren't necessarily anti-food, but everything is as bland as possible, mostly frozen, in boxes, bags, or cans :negative:

Sadly it was passed on to my brother who will actually turn hamburgers into hockey pucks. Thankfully I accidentally destroyed my microwave when I was 24 and was forced to learn how to cook for myself, otherwise I'd probably be the same way

I know people swear by it, but Ethiopian food is absolute disgusting garbage and I hate the paper towel of sour dough bread you have to use to eat what is basically gross stews with nuts plopped down on a loving plate. I've gone to a couple of different restaurants with a couple different groups of friends, so I've tried a bunch of different things so I guess it's just totally not my thing.

I don't think it's unacceptably weird? It's pretty normal to put butter on a steak, for example. I've had sour cream on a steak before, because we were having like fajita vegetables as a side, and the cold/creamy aspects of the sour cream mixed well with the black pepper and savory flavors of the steak.

Pork's actually fine these days, it's held to the same safety standard as beef. 145 degrees internal temperature, and it's okay to eat raw so long as you know it's clean. The only reason to be worried about it is if you're eating wild game.
