RANKING THE FOOD STATIONS LIKE A YELP CRITIC.

Remember those cafeteria queues? Not just for sustenance, but for a brief pause in the relentless pace of Ivy League life. We all had our mental Yelp reviews running, silently rating the stations that fueled our ambitions and, occasionally, our despair. The routine was almost ritualistic. Mondays, you knew the drill. Tuesdays might bring a glimmer of hope at the stir-fry station. Wednesdays, a mad dash for pasta. We mastered the art of timing, avoiding peak hours, or strategically arriving just as fresh trays were laid out. That unspoken hierarchy of food stations defined our weekly culinary roulette.
Was it the reliable salad bar, always there, always… a salad? Or the brave souls who ventured to the mystery meat station? The coveted grilled cheese line on a cold day? We weren't just eating; we were critiquing, discussing, and sometimes, commiserating over the culinary highs and lows that punctuated our academic journeys. These weren't just meals; they were strategic pit stops, negotiation tables, and impromptu therapy sessions. That midnight snack run, a final desperate attempt to fuel a last-minute essay, felt like a sacred pilgrimage.
From the glorious days of themed dinners to the questionable concoctions that tested our resilience, our cafeteria chronicles are etched into our shared history. They’re the backdrop to friendships forged, debates ignited, and futures envisioned. What was your top-ranked station? And what culinary mishap still haunts your memories?
