When coming back to school in the fall it is really hard to get used to Kimball food. Their options are either too bland, too greasy, or just not easy on the stomach. I feel kind of bad for the toilets on campus the first few weeks back because that food goes straight through. That is why I always took solace in my ride or die Kimball option: cereal. Whenever I was having a rough day of classes, Cinnamon Toast Crunch (or as my friend calls it CTC) would consistently be there for me.
If I hated all other menu options that day, I could just fill up on Cap'n Crunch. It was a staple in my diet because cereal will never bother my stomach. And also, it tastes friggin delicious.
As you can imagine, I was heartbroken when I returned to Holy Cross and realized that THEY REPLACED THE GOOD CEREAL WITH DISGUSTING KNOCK-OFFS.
Honestly, what is the point? Is it a cost saver? How expensive can name brand cereal actually be? Holy Cross raises the cost of the meal plan by $1,000 and takes away good cereal. Or maybe it is a ploy to inspire students to spend more money at the lobby shop because they can't live without dat good cereal #cerealgate.
Kimball, why did you do this to me? Out of all the things you could have cut corners on why make it a staple in every student's diet. I am such an unhappy camper. I will now gladly use your "suggestion box" to voice my disappointment in your terrible choice. I encourage everyone else who misses the taste you can see to do the same. Join me in the off brand cereal boycott. I have faith in us, let's rise together and #bringbackcereal2016.
Sincerely,
A Hangry Crusader.
O Cap'n, my cap'n I miss you so.
