The food service at University of Houston-Downton is terrible with only five fast food restaurants for a school of more of 14 000 students. With a record enrollment for UHD a better food court is needed for the high demand for food choices. The majority of foods on our campus are fast food with no meal plant for the benefit of the students who spend a great amount in tuition. Speaking of unhealthy food, four out of those five restaurants are considered bad for student’s health and with only one salad bar that runs out vegetables when the demand is high. Many of students face the issue of having to go out of school to eat because of the insipid food options at the food court causing them to leave campus, driving to restaurants and with this
As a result of the bad food, students do not eat in the cafeteria. They walk out of the cafeteria without eating. They can’t focus on their work because they are hungry. Students survive on snacks and junk food, which is also unhealthy.
Maize South Middle School should not serve fast food because unhealthy, expensive, and takes time. It is unhealthy because it could cause cancer, it could rotten the students teeth, and it could starve the students. It’s expensive because it is a lot of money, they have to save a lot of money, and the teachers won’t get a lot of money. Also it takes time because it will take a lot of time to get the food, they might not have it ready for the students, and they might have to take time out of anything to get food. To conclude, fast food served in our school isn’t
As a student of California State University, Los Angeles, I am writing this letter to bring up the issue regarding the lack of healthy food options available in our food court. Students are on campus for a long time and when they get hungry their only choice is eating at the food court that only offers 6 options to choose from not including those that are out of campus. Out of those 6 options almost all of them are known as fast food restaurants. Although CSULA’s food court is only limited to 6 options that do offer a variety of food choices, it is important that healthier food options are implemented because the food from those restaurants can lead to health problems.
Have you realized the problem? College students are always in a rush. We’re constantly moving from place to place. Think about a drive-through. People in their cars order food and they quickly get it. They do this because they’re in a rush. Now that I’ve told you this, think about all the places for food at Anne Arundel Community College. They conveniently pop up near your classes. The healthier food options are in the cafeteria, but your class starts in 10 minutes, and Subway is right there.
For many previous years, Anaheim High school has had a couple lunch system changes finally settling on two lunches, both being half an hour long. With both lunches only being half an hour long, for certain, more than one thousand students being in each, imagine the lunch lines! Making line to get your lunch takes already about fifteen minutes, half of a person’s time already, which leaves little time for a student to enjoy their so called meal and free time with friends.Based on other student’s experiences dealing with school lunch, one can rightfully assume that high schoolers would much rather hold in their hunger until after school rather than have the food being provided. There is not a single day that goes by in which a high schooler does not complain about the “worst than jail” food being served to them. This proposal will go into detail about why having an hour off-campus lunch can increase healthier eating habits between the undergraduates of Anahiem High School. In this layout, you will read about the issue of why we believe off- campus lunch would be a healthier choice for Anaheim High school students, you will also encounter our plan of how we intend to carry out this idea, what exactly needs to be done, with the help of who, and so on.
Attempting to urge student involvement and the rising costs of providing meals is a constant issue with the companies which provides meals for the schools. In the meantime, the issue remains how to increase the nutritional values of the food provided and assisting the companies that provide the food to do so and to maintain a stable program and its honesty, especially in making sure that children who are not eligible do not receive these reduced cost or free meals (Ralston, Newman, Clauson, Guthrie, & Buzby, 2008, p. iii).
Not only do both of the reasons above prove and show great examples of why or why not schools really should or shouldn't let school cafeterias be transformed into fast food courts supplied by fast food companies, in the end it's the school's themselves who make the choices to change the foods that they supply. Therefore here are three examples at which they can use to see if there school is even ready to make the leap toward fast food companies supplying lunches. First the school will need to be sure students can afford the lunches,second make sure the school can afford it as well, and thirdly the schools will need to have make sure the students are willing to go along with it. Although there is several more steps in which changing to a fast
For the third question each of the students had a different answer. For the fourth question all of the students answered with a strong 5. Last but not least, for the fifth question there was a variety of responses ranging from 2- 4. There are several ways to approach the food issue on campus. First, we can introduce food trucks, and line them up alongside the cafeteria. These food trucks will provide a wider choice when picking out what to eat. Second, we could put up brand name fast food restaurants like Burger King, Taco Bell, etc., in a central area like the cafeteria. Lastly, there could be caterers with a wide selection in their menus all around campus.
High school food options raise problems for students. School lunches may not be the cheapest option for the students or the district. According to "Duluth high school principals want to stick with open campuses," Duluth’s principal, Tonya Sconiers, opposes a closed campus because of the financial burden. This program change would cost the school approximately $239,000 to supply what would be needed for the new food policy. In addition, the lunches provided by the school lack quality. Students report the food as bland, and portion size is not enough to fuel for the entire school day. Numerous students involved in after-school activities cannot perform their best without a sufficient amount food in their stomachs. The food should provide energy for the students throughout the day. For low-income students, this lunch might be the only reliable daily meal.
To many, Northeastern’s dining halls rank fairly well in comparison with other schools. Although there have been many complaints that the menu is rarely changed, Northeastern does tend to offer a varied selection of food. In a recent survey, students were asked to rate Northeastern’s dining halls on a scale of 1-5, 5 being the best. About 36 percent surveyed ranked the food a “3” and about 57 percent ranked it a “4.” In general, Northeastern students think decent things about the dining halls. Some of the complaints however, included that there are a lot of fried and fattening foods, repetitive menus, and that vegetarian food is not always readily available; you sometimes have to wait for it to be cooked for you (e.g., veggie burgers).
For many college students, dining halls and other dining facilities are essential because they provide daily nutrition. Campus dining feeds millions of students, and may even be the only meals that some students can get. College students spend thousands on meal plans every year, so when it comes to dining it is important that it is clean, sustainable and most importantly convenient. On campus dining services have failed at working around college student’s schedules. Most dining facilities close around the time of 9:30 p.m. or even earlier forcing students to seek alternative options that cause them to empty their pockets, and go off campus when unnecessary. College campuses should extend dining hours and require at least one dining hall to
Many students like going off campus because the school food is not very appetizing many students have complained about the food. One of the main reasons why students complain is because some students receive food that has gone bad. My experience with this is one time during lunch I got my plate of food and they had
To say nothing of the first day of my freshman year, I was lost and confused as ever. I approached a huge line to get my lunch, not knowing what I was in for. The line was so long that I did not have enough allotted time to eat my lunch. I sat down with my tray in front of me and thought, “What kind of food is this?” Four years later, the food has not improved much. Often, we are unsure of what we are eating, such as “mystery meat” or “slop on a plate.” The lunch has no variation. It is the same food everyday, and usually does not look appetizing. Our school should allow off-campus lunch. Students would enjoy it more if they were able to go out to eat somewhere in town, or go home for a home-cooked meal, rather than the food that they feed us at our school. Having off-campus lunch would teach students responsibility, interaction, and time management skills. It helps students realize how the real world
By far, food is one of the most important things in this world. Most living things cannot survive without it. Not only is it necessary for life, but it something that is universally loved by everyone and everything. Some animals kill for food and some humans are even willing to fight and kill for it. All that being said, it’s clear that food is important to people and it should be treated accordingly. At the moment, the dining program at MNU is not getting the job done, and it could definitely use some changes.
Have you ever wondered why the privilege of going out and getting our own food during lunch was taken away? If yes, then you’re in for an entertaining essay on the topic. If no, then you are sad and don’t need to waste your time reading this lengthy paper. Jokes aside, I believe that students deserve the right to go out and about to get food during lunches. This essay will focus on why fast food options are no longer accessible.
