Even without official “Fast Food” chains, plenty of hospitals offer fries, burgers, or even Pizza as an option in the cafeteria anyways.
exactly. Even without a corporate fast food presence, hospitals don’t exactly sell cafeteria food which would pass muster with Michelle Obama.
Are hospitals going to be a new target of activists, to target hospital food, or target agreements by which hospitals get some additional income by leasing space to fast food companies? Do we really want to go there? Do we really need to micro manage the business end of a hospital to that degree???
“...plenty of hospitals offer fries, burgers, or even Pizza as an option in the cafeteria anyways.”
In a recent visit to see a relative at one of our local hospitals, I made my way to the cafeteria. There were multiple “stations” offering a variety of foods.. a grill, a pizzeria, a salad bar, etc. I hit the grill for my favorite...hotdog with fries. When I placed my order, the cook said, “Sorry, no fries. This is ‘Fry-Free Friday’”. I sputtered something about “This is a grill, you sell fried food, let me worry about saving my own life.”
I left, took the land bridge over to the Orthopedic Hospital, and visited Chic-fil-a.
I wonder if the quality of ingredients is any better than McD’s?
