Viscosity and dysphagia

If following a Texture C diet, Flavour Creations recommends consulting a Speech Language Therapist and/or Dietitian before consumption.

- mildly thick in viscosity (150) – This means these fluids easily flow off a spoon with effort required to drink through a standard bore straw. They are sip-able and pours quickly from spoon but slower than thin drinks.
