Hey @saturnzoon read a traditional chinese medical text saying mashed food was the only type of digestible food for the elderly as stomach changes as you get older.
May be better for you so you can eat something with your lack of teeth and painful mouth issues.
Had a friend who is a senior like me, he had no teeth and can't eat anything.
He wound up in psych ward and the hospital kitchen would puree his food. He never used to puree his food at home but thats what the hospital did
Maybe look into puree'ing your food. It would enable you to eat something without pain ❤️
I don't know how you would do it, using a food processor or a blender. You could get either from the op shop or kmart.
You could ask your GP or ring dentist on how to puree your food. I'm surprised they did not tell you.
But that is what the elderly are able to do.
You will feel more in control of your diet, still getting foods in and it won't bring you pain.
