Giving moist khichdi instead of dry chapati in a soft diet shows which principle?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Making chewing and swallowing easier through moisture and soft texture
A soft diet modifies texture and moisture so that food requires less chewing and can be swallowed more comfortably. Moist khichdi is generally softer and less dry than chapati, so it illustrates the use of moisture to improve texture. It does not necessarily increase sodium, remove all fibre, or increase energy density.
