Tully's the dining hall at Penn State Berks |
College dining halls are notorious for offering unhealthy
options, such as pizza, cheeseburgers, and french fries. Many students love to
rush to these items again and again for their daily meals, excited that no one
is telling them to eat healthy. Not being told what to eat is a great freedom,
but college is a time where many people establish lifelong habits. I know that
I never drank coffee before college, but now I am drinking it daily, and I am
confident that drinking coffee will be consistent in my life from here on out.
If you can learn to make healthy choices in the dining hall, this will hopefully
turn into a lifelong habit that will serve you all of your life!
Thankfully,
in addition to typical fried options which are fine in moderation, Tully's, the
dining hall at Penn State Berks, provides a plethora of healthy options. Each
day there is a fully stocked fresh salad bar that offers multiples types of
lettuce, fresh vegetables, as well as fish and meat options as a protein
source. Also, with each meal served, a vegetable is also offered, so take
advantage of that! Another great option is Tully's Deli Station, where they
offer sandwiches, wraps, hoagies, and more! It is easy to order a healthy and
tasty sandwich from the deli! Another awesome healthy eating tip, is to drink a
lot of water! Instead of grabbing a Pepsi at lunch, why not just drink a large
cup of water? It's healthy for you, and it's free, which is great for your meal
plan balance!
Wherever you go to college, remember that it is a perfect time to establish healthy eating habits that will serve you all of your life!
