Fruit at Point Park



Okay, so I just noticed this today. Cafeteria fruit is always super under ripe. You can bring one of these apples in your room in the beginning of December and still be able to enjoy it on New Years. But the funny thing is, if you choose to eat it a day after you bring it back to your room, it's just as good. They might be pumping these things with crazy chemicals, so we might wanna contact the FDA immediately. Or someone with nice handwriting please leave a comment in the cafeteria. Another thing I learned today is that apparently, you can't take more than a cookie or a piece of fruit out of the cafeteria. How clownish is that? Especially with the Cafe being closed during this crazy storm (which by the looks of everyone's Facebook status', everyone is thrilled to be attending classes today). I made a sandwich today to bring it back to my room for later, and was told I had to leave the cafeteria immediately--I thought they were going to confiscate my sandwich but luckily there was someone nice near the register to overrule the cranky id-checker-inner. It's funny how much money they charge us for fake food and how strict they keep their hours. You would think for 50 bucks a meal the least they could do is let me snag a turkey sandwich for later. Money doesn't grow on trees. Don't get me wrong, I know Pizza, Subway, and Chinese are delicious, but you can only make that rotation a number of times before your bank account is empty and your stomach is sick of take-out. Also, there are so many "college special" deals out there now, I feel like new places keep opening up just to compete with each other. It's not THE college special if there are 12 other deals just like it. P.S - sorry for the creepy picture. I googled "Point Park fruit" and obviously, nothing came up. So then I googled "weird fruit" and that's what came up.
