Cafeteria offers healthier options

September 26, 2011

Phillip Pytak, Staff writer

  After waiting in a crowded, noisy line, students are let into the kitchen, where the smell of freshly made cookies and fries fill the air.  Some students will notice that there are new additions to the lunch.  There are now more lunch choices added for a wider variety for students to choose from. 

   Some of these new additions include new sandwiches, wraps, chicken salad and chef’s salad.  There is also a new opportunity in which students have the option to pick two sides to go with their entree.

   Many students think these additions add more healthy options to the school lunches.  These lunches, along with the other ones, help the students keep a healthier lifestyle.

   “I think the new meals were added to help make the world healthier,” Sophomore Suzie O’Connor said.  Many students agree that it’s a healthier choice than French fries and other fast food meals students have for lunch.

   The new additions for the school lunches are beneficially affecting students’ lifestyle.

    I never buy lunch because I have heard that the food is gross. Surprisingly , the first time I actually bought lunch in my 4 years of going to CCC, it was good. I bought a bacon turkey sandwich. Most of the food that I have seen bought though looks very unappetizing. The french fries are indeed the best though.

    I like the new lunch program. It offers more types of food. I am not a huge fan of fried foods, so the new salads and wraps allow me to buy a lunch I like.

    Lunch has always been my favorite part about the long days here at CCC. In resent studies, it has been proven that a healthy lunch is vital to help students focus and concentrate in class.

    I always buy lunch everyday just as my good friend David does. I find the new selection to be much better than last year. The lunch ladies always greet me with a smile and give me a little extra food. I thank you lunch ladies for that gift.

    I never buy lunch because it’s so unhealthy. Maybe with new, healthy food options I’ll buy once in a while.

    The lunch ladies always made me feel welcome when buying my lunch, but the food choices sometimes deterred me away from buying. But now with these new additions, I just can’t find any reason why I wouldnt buy. The new food is great too!

    I don’t usually buy lunch, but on the days I forget I will definitely go for these new healthier meals. I always used to eat the greasy food they provide but now that I know there are alternative options I will definitely use that to my advantage.

    I’m not much of the healtier alternatives type of person, but I know that a lot of my friends enjoy these new wraps and salads. I’ve been told that they are actually pretty good and it is good now that they offer healthy alternatives because I know that there were a lot of complaints.
