[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ha ha! I think we suffer from overthinking and overcaring, OP.

My parents eat next to nothing because they're super health nuts and can't find "healthy-enough" foods over here in the States. I agonize that they're not getting adequate nutrients, and I run around the Whole Foods and trawl Amazon trying to find things that might pass muster.

Perhaps you're also projecting other causes of stress (work? their long stay?) on this food issue. Tell them they need to shop and cook their own meals.

I am beyond stressed but the food bit is a real issue. They can easily eat a whole loaf of bread for breakfast. They each eat as much as two grown adults. It's actually crazy. The issue this trip is they used to drive, my dad would sometimes grocery shop, my mom would cook. This time my mom is very physically limited and my dad is scared to drive. They say they want to help and "will eat anything" but they really don't and won't. As for Uber, ordering out...I sent my ds to buy lunch with them today but it is also all extremely costly.[/quote]
