My daughter's a bone marrow transplant patient. She must have a low bacteria diet because of her compromised immue system.

The dietitians say to serve her "all the wrong food." They mean prepared, prepacked, canned, individual portion sort of stuff.

Thus, she gets precisely the sort of diet that I would never normally serve my kids. Stuff like canned ravioli, etc.

I don't know, from personal experience with cleaning out some older canned foods limit the tomato based. I love tomatoes, but you can taste it. Beyond any documentation I've read.
I was just putting that out in general.

Old cans are generally the last thing anyone wants to eat.

i grew up on canned ravioli -

in college - we’d buy a no 10 can - toss it in the fridge and thats what we’d eat for the week - spending the rest of our money on whisky

im a cook by trade now - but there is still a comfort aspect to that stuff despite how nasty it is

best wishes and prayers for you and yours

Raw garlic if she can stand it.
