[QUOTE="TriciaWs, post: 2422654, member: 475901"] Used to be we could get a cooked breakfast in hospitals - plenty of carbs on offer but some protein too. Then politicians decided the private sector did everything better, forced the public sector to take the lowest bid, etc. By the time they were allowed to look at other things about from the money it was too late. With the cuts in real term funding for the NHS added in most contracts are for a set amount of calories and not much else, and as expected the private sector is about profit and bread is a cheap filler. I've asked family and friends to feed me next time I need to go in. [/QUOTE]
