Why does your hospital have a deep fryer to begin with? I’m sure if they set out a pile of low cost cocaine they’d consume that as well, it’s silly to offer people addictive foods and then turn your nose up at them when they eat them; especially in the context of being in the middle of what is probably one of the most stressful events of their lives and likely wanting familiar comfort food.

Anyway, the only difference between you/your colleagues and your patients is covered by my second point: education.

    Because the cafeteria needs to stay open and patients demand it. If we didn't have shit to feed idiots, idiots would order shit in. You cannot force people to eat well.
