Which option is not a feeding route?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Colour of the plate
A feeding route describes the bodily pathway through which nutrients enter the patient. The oral route uses the mouth and gastrointestinal tract, the enteral route delivers feed into the gastrointestinal tract usually through a tube, and the parenteral route delivers nutrients into the bloodstream while bypassing the gut. Plate colour may affect presentation, but it is not a nutritional pathway. Therefore, option A is correct.
