Fanny Adams 7 Posted September 30, 2008 (edited) Clear liquids are anything clear or semi-transluscent. Examples would be chicken, beef or vegetable stock, Crystal Light, Jello, cordials. Full liquids are thick and opaque. Examples would be Cream of [anything] Soup (not the thick & chunky varieties, those are mushies), plain yogurt (if it's got fruit chunks, it's a mushy), Optifast.< /p> Edited September 30, 2008 by Fanny Adams Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Twilight 2 Posted September 30, 2008 My team defines clear liquids as any that you could read through and full liquids are anything strained that could be sucked up a straw. Now some people had cautions about straws. My team never gave me that limitation. so clears were things like: Water, crystal light, coffee, tea, light fruit juices, broths, etc. Fulls were things like: cream of whatever Soups, Protein shakes, thinned yogurt, anything liquified with a blender or magic bullet, etc. Hope that helps.

Elizabethdb 0 Posted September 30, 2008 I used to work in the hospital and we served these A LOT. Clear liquids are anything you can see through, broth, Jello, italian ice, tea, crystal light... Full liquids are thicker and not clear. pudding, cream Soup, icecream,milk. and I have actually seen cream of wheat served on the full liquid diet. I wouldnt suggest eating that though, I tried and it made me sick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
