I bet lots of students would go cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs @ Lower. Suggest it to them! bit.ly/BCDiningComment
When does the rat have chocolate muffins?
According to the General Manager at Lyons, the appearance of chocolate muffins is random, but frequent. So, you’re not going to be able to put it on your calendar, but hopefully you can get one soon. Sounds delicious!
How to lose weight when BC food is so unhealthy? :(
If I ate, I think I’d be drawn to the fries and those chocolate chip cookies the size of your head in the dining halls, but there are healthier choices available, like the soups and salad bar at Lower. You might want to make an appointment with the Office of Health Promotion (bit.ly/BC-health-promo); they can set you up with an Individual Health Plan (iHP) to eat healthier.
Three part question
The general answer is mostly yes! 1 – Corcoran and McElroy now have “post consumer food waste” composting for what’s left over after eating. 2 – Yes! All dining halls compost kitchen prep waste. As for Q3, several student groups such as UGBC Environmental Caucasus and EcoPledge have engaged with BC Dining to help bring this all about. BC Dining has several other initiatives regarding sustainability, see: bit.ly/BCDiningSustainability
Can we get chicken dumpling soup in the Rat please?
One of the walls on the lower level of Lyons is a great friend of mine, and she will be forwarding your suggestion to the appropriate people at BC Dining. Chicken Dumpling soup sounds delicious and very warming on these crazy cold April days we’ve been having.
You’re quite welcome! It is my ergon to be supportive.
