      This doesn’t look appetizing at all, however the amount doesn’t seem that unrealistic for old people.

        I’m not sure about that. The veggies are relatively low in calories. The chicken and dumplings would be really high in calories but that’s a very small amount.

        My best guess is this plate is less than 200-250 calories. We’re missing a lot of detail here though. It might not be three equal calorie meals per day. This might not be what your average person gets someone might have just pissed in their Wheaties.

        Assuming that’s one of three daily meals with equal calories, that’s probably about half the calories even someone in total lethargy would need to survive.

          I was assuming 5 meals a day, some fruit, yoghurt etc. Not an expert in any way though, I’m just always astonished at how little older people seem to eat (and need).

        The amount is appalling. However, this is my absolute favorite meal because I remember my grandma making it when we would visit and the house would be packed full of family. Chicken (turkey on the day after Thanksgiving), potatoes, carrots, spices, and lots of rolled dumplings. I made it for my kids and they say it’s one of their favorites too. I think just because its filling and its a good meal when you have to feed a lot of people. Adults in the dining room, young kids at the counter, and older kids spilling out into the living room.

        We call it Glea-sance, I think the word is French (French-Canadian?), maybe part Native. I have no clue how to spell it, I’ve never seen it written until now. I’ve tried to spell it phonetically, two syllables, possibly two words since both syllables should be accented. Glea as in ‘glea’, and sance as in ‘seance’ without the ‘ay’ sound. I love it, but I would cry if I was given this portion in a styrofoam tray.
