Hahaha tofu and steak are not the same thing. Not by a long shot. Porridge isn't so bad. But I guess if you haven't eaten in a few days and have been dreaming of all the delicious food you will eat again, then it's really nothing special - quite boring and unsatisfying.
Sounds like you had a rough go with covid. Yikes.
I like porridge, but fora while there it was so meh. I am back on it though!
