Slow blogging week

I have to apologize for not having restaurants to blog about lately.  I recently had an unexpected stay St. Joseph's, so the only food I was eating was courtesy of the hospital kitchen.  Hospital food is certainly nothing to write home about, but I'm really disappointed in the amount of styrofoam that was used in food service.  Hospitals generate a lot of waste anyway, much of it is necessary to maintain sanitary and sterile conditions.  But they could do a much better job at minimizing the non-biodegradable wastes that aren't part of the sterilization process, such as the 20 oz. styrofoam cups that they served drinks in.  I'd be willing to bet that the little plastic cups in which they delivered my meds were thrown away, too.
