My oldest nephew, who is a great guy, was in a collision this weekend, and suffered a broken mandible. Ow. This means that he has had his jaw wired shut for the next 6 weeks (or so, depending on recovery time), and is now on a strict liquid diet.
That sucks.
We went down to the market and got him a couple of cases of Ensure, but ... I have concerns about the nutritional value of that.
DKos is a varied and experienced enough community that there are probably those among you who have gone through this, or something similar. What would you recommend for a 20-something who is extremely limited in his intake, and will likely suffer from extreme diet boredom? Something he can drink that covers the gamut of nutrients, and doesn't taste like chalk or worse? I'd really like to make this experience less horrible than it has to be.
Thanks in advance!
