This makes me soooo aggravated.

At the beginning of the semester the caf food was some what good. I don't know if it was because it was new or it was the beginning of the year and no one was lazy enough to not take the time to make good food. Here lately though, the caf food has been awful!!!
I do not appreciate how we are suppose to depend on a caf that doesn't even have decent food have the time. College students are always given this image of gaining weight.. well you know what, if we could have decent meals every now and then maybe we would get full enough to where we wouldn't want to snack later in the night. It is also frustrating when you don't want to eat out all the time and would like a home cooked meal. That is hard to get if the caf doesn't even have anything edible.
Sure some day's they have some good foods to choose from and tastes alright. But when you're hungry and would like some pasta it is a little frustrating to recieve unseasoned noodles with runny marinara sauce that tastes awful.
I just believe that there should be a lot more attention to the food in the caf so we can depend on a good place to eat. Especially since we are paying to eat there!

  1. Dear Junco,

    I DEFINATLLY AGREE with you...
    IT pisses me off that we are getting more and more diguesting food. i mean im not picky ill eat the damn food. but i dont think we are in high school we have a damn nice cafeteria and a nice staff that should and better provide better food.
    ive had to been having to buy more and more groceries. also if we were suppose to gain weight haha i think they should have designated smoking areas on campus so i wont have to walk all they way across the street!!! but thank you for you topic~

    Nameless....

  2. Dear Snack Attack,
    We are definitely in the same boat when it comes to the cafeteria food. I did not mind it at the beginning of the year, but it is starting to get bad. I rarely eat any food from the main line. I usually stick to omlettes, turkey sandwiches, or cereal. In a way I suppose it is a good thing because I do not eat as much now. I have become more and more picky when it comes to cafeteria food. I do not know if it is because my stomach is pickier or if the workers are slacking on making the food in which we must consume. I agree it is a problem and I am just doing my best to get a decent meal. Thanks for blogging!

  3. Dear Jordan,
    I completely agree with what you've said about the cafeteria. At the beginning of the year, I was all about some Caf food. I couldn't wait to go in there everyday and stuff my face full of the delicious goodness. Now... not so much. I try to avoid the random foods at the main line everyday and all the fake looking meats, especially gyro Wednesdays. I also agree about the pasta. The pasta and nasty marinara sauce is never appealing at all. I mostly stick to stir fry or a sandwich. Luckily, next semester you can always change your meal plan and eat at the student center or something. Thanks for posting!

  4. Dear Junco,
    I agree with you. I loved the cafeteria at the beginning of this school year but now I hate going. I also think that the food should be better if we are paying to eat there. I mean what do they expect us to do if we run out of money on our cards. they want us to eat in the cafeteria which we don't do because it's gross. i eat after lunch quite often because i never find anything i want to eat. thanks for posting this blog.

  5. Dear Jordan,
    This is exactly right! At the beginning of the semester the food was actually pretty good in the caf and I thought that it would be a good year. But NO! Now we get lucky if there is something good to eat twice a week. It's no wonder we, as college students, are snacking all the time. We don't eat enough at the caf so we don't stay full at all. And then we just eat tons of unhealthy food that we are probably paying too much for anyway. Honestly, I believe that college is just a large service industry that sucks up all our money. I would be ok with this if they were actually SERVING us! Thank you for posting this blog!

  6. Dear Junco,

    Wow, I could not agree with you anymore! This post is soooo true! The caf is AWFUL! When I walk in there I just want to gag. It stinks and makes my stomach turn. I honestly think that it is pathethic that we are WASTING our money on boxed up food that just makes a person sick. Literally, every meal I eat in there I just pick at. I don't think that I ever leave that place content. Our caf is the last thing from being dependable. Thanks for this post. I could honestly not agree anymore.

  7. Dear Junco,

    After our many talks about the nasty caf, you already know i could agree with you more. I'm getting so sick of sandwich after sandwich!! I don't know how much longer I can take it! And it's not like they are giving us many healthy options either. . .Everytime I eat in there I just feel siiiiick. It's awful and it just seems to be getting worse.
    I couldn't agree with you more.

  8. Dear Snack Attack,
    I agree 140% with your blog. The caf has been unusually nasty the past few weeks. Maybe it has something to do with winter break coming up.
    The part where you mentioned that we paid to eat there really stood out for me. Meal plans at UCA are not cheap. In fact they are ridiculously priced for crappy inedible food.
    "College students are always given this image of gaining weight.. well you know what, if we could have decent meals every now and then maybe we would get full enough to where we wouldn't want to snack later in the night." That part really stood out for me. Because people go to the caf to get better food for you than the greasy student center. But truth be told the caf is just as bad for you then the student center. They do not offer any healthy items or even semi healthy.
    Thank you so much for writing this blog. Hopefully one day something will be done about the horrible caf.
    Sincerely,

  9. Junco,

    I completely agree with you! If college students are known for gaining weight, then why don't they try to put a stop to it. It would make our country look better as a whole. The cafeteria really doesn't even have any variety as it is. I constantly catch myself eating the same thing. Hopefully they will change the way the cafeteria chooses their food. Thanks for blogging!
