When you think of a hospital, you probably don’t automatically think, in exceedingly glowing terms, about that hospital’s cafeteria. Unless, of course, you happen to be thinking about the Jackson General Hospital in Ripley, West Virginia, which boasts one of the best, friendliest, most spirited hospital cafeterias to be found anywhere in the Mountain State.
