    Sample pack (7 purees delivered in pack)

    We were appreciative of the free sample pack, with 7 purees, thank you. (Not 8 purees, as per Care Food Co image)

    Given my mother's condition, she no longer has her tongue (removed due to tongue cancer) so all of the pureed packs provided needed to be significantly "liquefied" to allow her to taste & swallow. Once we heated, and added milk or water, it was better for her.

    However, some of the products she could not tolerate at all - even though I tried to strain the purees further - and so are not suitable for her. Other products were suitable and a pleasant change from what we make at home, and from her nutritionist-prescribed fortified drinks.

    She could manage (with added liquid) the following purees: mushy peas, carrot, baked cauliflower, & mango

    She could not manage (even with added liquid and further straining of puree) the following: beef bourguignon, chicken cacciatore, sweet corn mash

    Hi Caterina,
    Thank you for your review, it must be very distressing for both your mum and yourself. You are correct purees are not quite right given your mums situation, our product would have to be further liquidised for them to be safe for her, we don't do a level three liquidised, thinking that our soups could assist however. We will check to see if we can further assist you though

    Just what we need

    We have an elderly gentleman who cannot tolerate solid food any more. So easy for his partner to prepare and food is very delicious.

    Product assessment

    It was a very food representation of the variety of products you offer. I was not sure if this is how a client receives their products or if it was to sample the actual product integrity , taste etc.?

    Very clear packaging and information, thank you

    It was not for a dysphagia client to assess, but for purchasing and Food and Nutrition & Nursing to discuss
