Food Favs

Eating at a dining hall really forces you to think about what you like, tolerate, and outright despise. With so many buffet choices, and so little room on the plate (dining trays have been eliminated starting this year: it either saves cleaning water and the environment, or it saves Dining Services a few bucks), which foods will make the grade?

My personal favorites from Dewick include:

• Chocolate milk, sneakily only available at 1 of the 2 drink stations
• Hot chocolate
• Pink lemonade, in part because pink is superior, but also because regular is Crystal Light. Which, by the way, should have been named "Crystal Lite." It's sugar free, not illuminating, people!
• Pasta. Preferably not whole-grain. Chunky veggie tomato sauce to top.
• Strawberries. They surpass all other fruit in awesomeness, though I did manage to both consume and kidnap bananas today. There is one chillin' in the fridge now.
• Ice cream, soft-serve variety.
• Eggs, scrambled. Only because I want the protein.
• Tofu, fried. See above reasoning.
• Mushrooms. And peas. Clearly the most lovable of all vegetables.

But wait! I'll bet you don't agree with the above list! You think there are superior fruits, more nutritious veggies, and protein sources that aren't rubbery. Is it true? Then comment below! C'mon, people, I know at least a few of you have Google Accounts, I can see you following the blog. Add your thoughts!
