Puree vs chewing

[De6270 24]

Question...I'm starting puree phase and wonder if anyone has not puree something and chewed good instead. I have had some turkey slices and chewed them up good without problems... thoughts?

It is not the same. Call your nutritionist and ask. Puree is more of a liquid and no texture. Turkey was on my soft food stage that came after purees.

When I purée my food, it doesn't tune into a liquid form, it just turns into mushy food. I hope I'm not doing the puréed stage wrong. My NUT told me to just purée what ever I make for the family. The other night I made pork loin chops with fire roasted corn and I puréed it and it was just mushy, but not liquidy at all.

The texture is the same as chewing to me.

I looked at my food list and it says puree/soft foods. I am starting these 8 days post surgery....to be honest I've already had some food that I chewed good with no problems.
