Some areas serve better meals on wheels than O`s....but I`M YET to meet anyone/patient etc..who has much positive to say about them in the UK...forgive me if I`m wrong..but often even if the food is of good quality..it is often luke warm and doesn`t always travel well..remember the delivery people have often many stops to deliver everyone`s food!..IT`S just my opinion!!:-z..BUT  have you thought of other alternatives...can you buy in healthy meals that your parent`s only have to heat up if that`s an option...can you/they fill the fridge with nice easy food and sandwiches...private companies may be expensive and not an option for their budget??..But often much nicer quality food...can neighbours help out ..can you cook nice nutritional meals that can  be easily heated or/and foods that such as quiches and shop bought deserts?? iF MEALS ON WHEELS are the only feasable option then so be it..but I`d explore ALL options as well!!!...I`M NOT A FOOD SNOB...i JUST THINK good food is a necessity as well as one of lifes pleasures!:-)

good luck!Millie x

I get Meals on Wheels. The food is horrible, hideous and inedible. It's also depressing to know you're being slopped like the pigs. For instance, today, I had some really, really aldente ( read undercooked) spaghetti with something that looked like a tomato sauce? A section of canned carrots and something green that was masquerading as broccoli.

My God. I have to wonder who/what is putting this together? Who are the "cooks"?

I live alone and its really, really depressing.
