[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid is doing research on colleges, and sees a few schools where most of the students complain about the food. I am insistent that there is no college currently in session that has food that is completely inedible for the 3k+ students to go there. They would not still be in existence. It would be front page story. I get that there are schools with subpar hot meals or variety; but salads and cereals!?

Your kid is being picky. This is the perfect opportunity for them to break the habit and start training their pallet for life.[/quote]

My kid isn’t being picky. He took a gap year last year and traveled independently throughout South America, cooking for himself at hostels and eating all kinds of food. At the hostels, though he usually had access to some kind of stove, top and oven, which meant he had more options for cooking a simple meal.

I take him at his word that the meal plan dining food is not worth the cost. He’s dropped down to ten meals so that’s done.

It’s not a front page story (why would it be?) but the dining services at Temple university are getting many complaints this year from students and parents. It’s definitely not a secret and they are complaining to the company managing the dining hall.
