Ah! Hospital food!
When I was in the Annapolis hospital my meals (due to my injury) mostly consisted of an IV, Jell-O, broth and decaf coffee. The Navy Commander across from me often had steak dinners. He obviously enjoyed them and would smile and ask me how I enjoyed my green Jell-O.
When I was in the Portsmouth hospital I had regular – but bland – food. No salt and decaf coffee.
