A NOTE from DR. GHOSH
Custard is easy to swallow when other foods just won't go down or when you're suffering from mouth sores. The smooth and soothing texture may be just what you're looking for in a dessert or snack.

"This is so good, so smooth and creamy and so nutritious with all those eggs. I love this pudding when my mouth is sore. Sometimes I have a banana with it. Reminds of Grandma's banana cream pie. Mmm, good." -ANNE R.
