SO, last week was okay. Last Monday Emily's Garden served the most horrible orange tofu I will probably ever eat. It was so bad I spit it out. and I NEVER spit out food, even if it's horrible. I just plug my nose and and swallow it if I've taken a bite of something bad. But the tofu, well this was just ATROCIOUS. It makes me wonder if the cooks ever taste test the food their making. I'm sure as hell if they did the food would be a whole lot better than half the stuff they serve. If they had, then they would have realized that the seasoning on the tofu was so damn strong it was hard to eat. Kind of like the cinnamon challenge. It's so overpowering you just have to spit it out! (For those of you who don't know what the cinnamon challenge is, it's when you try to eat a whole teaspoon of cinnamon without water, while trying not to inhale it or vomit). So continuing, the seasoning on the tofu was terrible, and I don't think it could have tasted good on anything.
The rest of last week made up for the awfulness of the Orange Tofu. I had the most delicious eggplant parmesan, as well as this cool mushroom puff pastry dish, Amy's spinach and feta pocket, self made salads, grilled cheeses, and mozzarella sticks. Any cheese and bread concoction is automatically delish, so I'm always happy when D-Hall serves grilled cheeses and mozz sticks.
I've noticed that the vegetarian food on the weekends is usually really good. Saturday I had amazing pasta primavera at the pasta station, and then Sunday the food at Global Cafe was Asian Heaven! I had veggie sushi, edamame, and seaweed salad. I'm such a Japanese food junkie. It's all I ever eat at home, so it's nice when Global serves yummy Japanese food.
Today though, the food SUCKED for lunch. It was the worst Monday in D-Hall EVER. Do you know why? Well it's because..... I HAD A VEGGIE BURGER, and they weren't even SERVING IT!!!!!!! That's how desperate I was today at lunch. There was honestly NOTHING to eat. Emily's was serving this gross veggie sandwich, which tastes of onions and...well, onions. There was nothing at the other stations, and since I'm trying to eat healthier, I didn't want to get pizza or a bagel. I had some of the green beans at Diner and even those were disgusting!! They were flavorless, and super overcooked. They turned to mush in my mouth even before chewing them. Who wants to eat that!? SO, I went to Emily's and asked them to cook me a veggie burger. As I took my first bite, I instantly regretted it. To those carnivores or omnivores who don't ever eat veggie burgers, let me tell you, that even as a vegetarian I find them gross. It's so hard to find a good veggie burger, and they especially suck more at school. I had this black bean veggie burger, and it was spicy. What kind of burger is supposed to be spicy!? maybe if you put hot sauce on it, but most burgers aren't spicy. Plus I hate beans, and having them in my burger just totally ruined my lunch. I ended up eating two cookies and snacking on my friend's potato chips from Deli.
I can't believe I had a veggie burger, even still. I wonder what the other vegetarians did today for lunch....Well, hopefully there will be something good at dinner, which I'm about to go to!! All I can say it that I'm SO EXCITED FOR BREAK CAUSE I'LL GET TO HAVE DELICIOUS VEGETARIAN FOOD!!
:D
