One of the local restaurants had a senior menu, and the meals were way too small for me. I suppose as people get older and less active, they might need less food, but I am not there yet. I do worry about being at the mercy of a senior living center someday for my food, especially now that I am doing gluten-free. I worry about the types of food and the amounts.
