Hundreds of students count on the cafeteria to fill their stomachs every morning. Even though the renovations have provided additional options, students who frequent the cafeteria for breakfast may find the selections somewhat redundant. Fortunately, several students have come up with creative solutions to shake up their ordinary morning meals and start the day off right.
Freshman William Gann has a specific way to spice up his morning waffles. This DIY trick is a way for students to satisfy their sweet tooth.
“I don’t want it to get too monotonous, so every now and then I’ll bring in a little extra treat, like a little container of Nutella and a banana or two,” Gann said. “(Then) I’ll slather some Nutella all over my waffle, just because it keeps thing interesting.”
Junior Tim Davis is not afraid to be a little adventurous and take his breakfast meal to the sandwich line to mix things up a bit. His unconventional method condenses and simplifies an array of choices into one hearty serving.
“At times I will get a meal from the Home Zone and I will take it over to the sandwich area and get a wrap and make a breakfast burrito,” Davis said.
Junior Christy Delgado has a quick and easy alternative for students looking for something satisfying, yet healthy.
“I’ll get yogurt and get granola and mix a little bit of peanut butter into it,” Delgado said. “I like that because it’s filling and a better option when I want to avoid the heavy, greasy meal from the Home Zone.”
These breakfast hipsters refuse to conform to the mundane. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, why should it not also be the most exciting? In the words of the late Truett Cathy, “Food is essential to life, therefore, make it good.”
