I keep hearing about Wendys chili being a good choice to eat. My question is when? How many weeks post op? I keep getting my "lines blurred" between puree and soft.

Me too. I finally felt if I could chew it to the consistency of mush, it counted as puree.

It depends what your post op diet plan is. I'm 4 weeks out today and am just going to the chopped/ground stage. Which is the first time I'm allowed to eat meat not puréed (which I refused to eat last stage). Therefore I'm actually stopping at Wendy's on my way to work today to bring for dinner.

I was able to eat half a small Wendy's chili, chewed very well, at about 6 weeks postop. The key is definitely chewing to puree consistency. It's quite convenient and tastes nice, so I recommend it

I really enjoy Pamela's turkey chili (smallest size). It's yummy!

I haven't heard of Pamela's but I do love turkey chili....or any white chili also. Mmmmmm

I remember for Thanksgiving four years ago I made my own chili, and sipped it slowly. What a delight. You can make a small pot, using the best ingredients, semi purée it, and you will love it. Freezable too.
