Pictures of meals served at hospitals throughout the world.
A few are like what you’d expect: boring, pre-packaged, questionable quality. Most of the pictures are pretty interesting, though, ranging from right-angle OCD food/tray arrangements to actually looking tasty. Japan’s are the coolest – nearly every Japanese photo has a whole fish w/eyes, scales – the works. Can’t imagine how you’d tuck into that thing in a hospital.

Every time I have been in the hospital in the last two years, it was for gastrointestinal-type surgery and so I always had clear liquid diet every time, which includes jello (cherry or orange), water ice (raspberry or orange - both of which become like the consistency of snot when they get a bit melted), tea or coffee (sugar only), cranberry or apple juice, unsalted hot chicken broth (which tastes like metallic water). Basically every element was completely disgusting, especially since I don’t even like drinking beverages on a normal day. Philadelphia PA, USA hospital (thanks Laura)
