Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The person's food being pureed means that it has been blended or mashed to a smooth consistency. Therefore, it will be thick like mashed potatoes and served with a spoon. The person may also need special cups or utensils to help them drink or eat. However, the option of drinking from a cup is not likely as pureed food is generally too thick to drink. The option of serving the food in a bowl is valid, but not as precise as option B.
