Current Events > Okay I need some better food.

(+) Yeah! (+)

To recap I got 3 teeth extracted on Friday until I go through the deep cleaning and eventual filler replacement process I can't eat solid foods for risk of disturbing the healing process of the blood clots. Yesterday I bought the recommended soup, applesauce and jello and it was horrible, I ended up butt vomiting all day and some this morning. This cannot stand. What are some other foods that are safe to eat that aren't either mega salty like soup or mega sweet like applesauce and jello? I wish I could eat a burger or something, get some meat in me.

I had a blender about 2 years ago but it broke when I tried to put my cousin's old CD player in it because I was mad at her over something I can't remember.

Just buy some low sodium beef stock.

That is a very specific answer that raises even more question. How dare you.

Make your soup less salty, or maybe slow cook some beef.

Beef stock is a broth. It's liquid.

Yeah well it's meant for cooking, not drinking. But if you're on a liquid only or liquid heavy diet for whatever reason, it's one of your only options besides the blender you broke with 90's tech.

Get some low sugar meal replacement drinks just for some calories. Maybe some oatmeal or couscous as a filler.

Get some hummus, rice pudding and fresh fruit juice.

That's pretty lame, but at least stuffing is the best part. Thanks Giving is my favorite holiday.

There's still over two weeks until the holiday, so you should be healed enough by then to manage solids, even if only in small bites. Did they give you a little plastic syringe with the curved nozzle for direct cleaning?

Sorry to hear TC. This guy I knew also once had all 4 of his wisdom teeth extracted. He used a blender to prepare his usual meals. Maybe you can borrow it from someone?

No, they took my teeth out, told me to eat ice cream, soup, jello, yogurt and dream only water, after that I'll do deep cleaning, still not 100 percent sure what that entitles

I have figured out why you needed teeth pulled.

And get attached to bullion, because that's what you are going to be eating for a while.

Well even without that thing, 18 days from now the extractions sites should have healed enough, if you're taking the recommended care actions, to manage small solids.

I'm starting to really regret doing this.

we're all not going to be able to touch something.

beef broth is the way to go if need a meaty taste. chicken broth stinks on low sodium (no offense).

Think you could do something super soft, like pot roast? That sounds doable, especially if you break it apart well.

I'll try those when I get the chance, right now I gotta go let salt water sit in my mouth for a couple of seconds since brushing is too dangerous as I might miss and hit the extraction sights

Hummus
Yogurt
Scrambled eggs with cheese
Tofu
Avocado
Mashed potatoes
Teff porridge
