Totally Takeout has been the answer for many students who couldn't make it to eat at the cafeteria due to their busy schedules, studies or late-night classes.

It also has been the source for a quick bite before or during classes. Though it may have provided students with the convenience of taking food out and avoiding the burden of eating alone, the fact that they have the same food, or as they call it, "variety choices," every day is just ridiculous.

It's not as bad for those students who take food out every once in awhile. But people like myself, however, who depend on Totally Takeout at least twice a week, are tormented knowing that they'll end up choosing between either a turkey or tuna sub to suit their attempt at a nutritious meal. The majority of choices Totally Takeout offers have little or absolutely no nutrition whatsoever subs, pizzas, peanut butter and jelly Uncrustables, Hot Pockets, nacho chips, hot dogs, etc. and therefore attract only those who wish to stock up on apple or orange juice.

The Housing and Food Services should change up the choices of food offered every one or two weeks to provide the "variety" promised, or extend the cafeteria hours so students can have the pleasure of coming out of class and know there is still time to make it for dinner.

As students who take account of our meal plans, we should receive a better selection of food from Totally Takeout without feeling disgusted by what we choose to eat.
