Everyone enjoys the fun and convenience of snacks and other easy to eat food. But for some people these meals in a mouthful may actually be a life-changer if they can be eaten with your
hands and are good for you as well.
Imagine… you’re not comfortable with cutlery, can’t face a large meal, have reduced appetite, trouble with chewing or swallowing, are always on the move or have other things on your mind-an easy to eat, hand-held snack that is high in energy, nutrition and taste will restore dignity and enjoyment to your dining experience.
While everyone who loves a snack will enjoy It’s all about the food not the fork! it is a gift of love especially prepared for older people and people with dementia, swallowing difficulties or other disability, as well as carers.
