We Eat With Our Eyes

The appearance of the food we eat can positively or negatively affect the overall enjoyment and experience of our meals. Elite Pureed Meals creates the best experience for those who have difficulties swallowing by producing high quality, nutritious, and visually appealing meals. We do this by pureeing nutritious meals and then recreating them into their original, visually appealing forms. By acknowledging that people tend to eat first with their eyes, taking in the appearance of a meal and then deciding if it will be appetizing, Elite Pureed Meals proves that even food can bring about love at first sight.

The plating of meals is an influential part of the eating experience. According to Chef Shaya, from At Your Palate, “plating dishes is one of the most careful and important tasks of chefs around the world. Chefs take time to plate their dishes solely to make the food appealing to those consuming it.” Chef Shaya writes about a study done by Polytechnic University of Valencia and Oxford University, published in the Journal of Sensory Studies. This study reported that even the color of the plate that the meal is served on could alter the perceived flavors of the food itself. This shows the importance of the color and appearance on a person’s overall enjoyment of a meal.

When we eat with our eyes first, we are influenced by more than just the color, however. Nina Marinello, from Times Union, explains that the shape and size of food is also extremely important to how appealing a meal will be. She states that the shape and size of the food helps people believe that they will enjoy the meal even before eating it. The appearance, according to Marinello, gives them the sense they will be satisfied by the meal after they consume it. This helps encourage those suffering from dysphagia to see it is possible to enjoy a meal, even from first glance.

Elite Pureed Meals' careful attention to the color, shape, and size of their food demonstrates to those with swallowing difficulties that eating with one's eyes is the first step to a delicious and nutritious meal.

Elite Pureed Meals is dedicated to preparing meals that emulate the visual features of a traditionally prepared meal, without sacrificing taste or nutrition. So people with swallowing difficulties can enjoy their meals with both their eyes and their palates. The care and detail that goes into the presentation, quality, and enjoyment of our meals is our recipe for a satisfied customer.

Jenna, Mom of Marco, age 5

I have a son who is 5 years old and has Cerebral Palsy. He is just learning how to chew but is not yet able to eat full meals of solid food. He is a selective eater and will often gag on foods he does not like. He is under weight because he is so selective of the foods he will eat, and he has to drink many of his calories from a bottle. Today he tried an Elite Pureed Meal. I really appreciated how it looked like a real meal and not mush, while still being pureed and therefore easy for my child to eat. He was hesitant at first, but then ended up eating the whole meal. He ate chicken, potatoes, and carrots. It was a very nutritious meal for him, and he truly enjoyed it. Elite Pureed Meals, Inc is great!

Marjorie Hipps

I would like to say that I was truly amazed at how the meals looked just like regular meals, and had all of the nutrition one would expect. I was really impressed that Colleen's meals had such a superior level of appearance, presentation, and nutrition without sacrificing any of the taste. I've tried the meals, and even my mother tried them and loved them!

Kimberly, Mom of Dawson, age 2

My child is a very picky eater. He is two years old and has Down Syndrome. He eats mostly oatmeal and pureed foods in a pouch. He will spit out baby food, both from a jar and that I try to make him at home. His feeding skills are a bit lagging for his age and he isn't able to chew solid foods yet. I tried Elite Pureed Meals and my son loved it! He ate almost an entire adult-sized meal of mashed potatoes, carrots, and meatloaf! I was overjoyed and in disbelief! I would absolutely recommend Elite Pureed Meals to other families who have children with Down Syndrome who are not yet able to chew food!
