This Is What Hospital Food Looks Like Around The World

Hospital foods have a reputation for being subpar. The media almost always depicts hospice cuisine as colorless vegetables, mushy meat, or luminescent Jell-O. However, hospital food can be more than what we see on TV. In fact, one of the best breakfasts I’ve ever had came from a hospital cafeteria.

Have you ever wondered what types of foods different hospital foods serve around the world?

Sunbelt Staffing compiled some research from different hospital menus around the world and created this delicious look at all the different menu offerings one would find.

Here are some gorgeous examples of the foods served in hospitals around the world.
