I thought so.....


This workplace is organised by The Salvation Army.
They serve lunch, every day.
Just a very simple hot meal.

The two men, who cook for everyone, just make very simple, mostly pre fab food...

As i thought, for almost all the people working there, it is their ONLY real meal, of the day.

Things like fruit or, real fresh cut vegies?
Or, herbs....?

I asked this R person, those strange things, 😉, called: fruits?
Do you take them?
Or fresh vegies?
His answer; after first, thinking about it; Nah, not so.....

Aah, well......

I take my own hot meals with me.
I cant eat their "food"...

Almost every day, they eat patatos, those are nightshades, i dont eat those...
Or cook pasta, wheat, i dont eat, that either....
And, always meat!!
The cheap kind of<b> meat... </font></b>sausages and the likes.... always almost pork...

It is great, that people, working there, can get this one hot meal!

They do what they can...

I believe, that if i should cook there, they wont eat it!

Too strange, too much different tastes in one mouthfull.

not the dutch way of cooking; patato, vegies, meat.
Aaah, well....

As others said, it is good you help and the poor can get a decent meal!

To give a helping hand is often mutually rewarding. Acts of kindness are good for the soul. You can feel the goodness.

marshamay,
Aah, that sounds like a real good deal!
I am not the cook, there....

and not planning on to become their cook...
The two men are doing just fine, for a very simple meal.

jenny,
I agree,
i am just working on the bikes, that come in.
Those two men, who cook those meals, are doing fine.

It is just not what i am use to eat, i use a lot of herbs, ginger, garlic, a lot of green herbs, too...
and always fresh vegies, they use preserves vegies.
It is a very good thing, at least those people get one hot meal a day.
