Why are fried hard snacks considered unsuitable in a soft diet?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: They can be hard to chew and rough
A soft diet is designed to reduce chewing effort and make swallowing more comfortable. Fried hard snacks are crisp, dry and rough, so they may hurt the mouth, require forceful chewing, or leave particles that are difficult to control. Their exclusion is based on texture, not on their taste or protein content.
