Food is a topic that will never grow old. I’ve been discussing whether pineapple goes on pizza since the Cheetah Girls were still making movies. Some conversations get heated, and others are just outlandish. Let’s dive into some popular food debates.

Baylor’s campus is home to several local restaurants through Revolve and food trucks. From Tru Jamaica to Oh My Juice, Baylor has allowed such businesses to expand their reach by giving students the opportunity to support them.

Rising tuition costs, a lack of transportation and the inability to find healthy food options are all factors that contribute to food insecurity among Baylor students. However, a variety of on-campus resources are available for students who need food assistance.

There’s no denying it: food insecurity is an issue for students on campus— 2,150 of them to be exact, according to The Store’s website. If such a sizeable number of students struggle with this issue, why is it that these students remain silent in their suffering?

Sytsma said over 45,000 meal swipes are used each week, and dining services is always looking for ways to improve per the students’ feedback.

If I could sum up my love for these ranches, it would be the same level of how most college women and moms crave Diet Coke. Just like the Diet Coke analogy, I live for this condiment.

Some professors do allow eating during class when they see students dashing into the classroom with their lunchboxes or to-go boxes from dining halls. But that doesn’t make it a good solution. Eating quickly still hurts your health, and it’s disturbing to the class environment and both the professors’ and students’ attentiveness, especially when others are hungry too.

For the freshmen who are now arriving at school, the freshman 15 is not a joke. People wonder how it’s possible to gain weight when there is an adequate amount of walking incorporated into our daily schedules, but it all stems from the food.
