Monday Grease-Fest


Monday morning for me was class, not food. I had to wake up at seven a.m. to get to class on time and my priorities then were not to scrounge around for food, but usually to try and finish up some last minute homework. This was the case on Monday as well, so breakfast was skipped, and that meant class until eleven a.m. and no food until lunch.

The best part about the weekdays as opposed to weekends was my commuter meal plan at the college cafeteria. To me, this meant food: fast, greasy, Burger King food. My commuter meal plan gave me access to several restaurants in the cafeteria along with an assortment of beverages and snacks. Only it wasn’t open on weekends, only during the week in the middle of the day. This meant I could eat today though, and at one o’clock after all my classes were done I headed to the cafeteria and got a Burger King double stacker cheeseburger, fries, and an iced tea (to be healthy, you know).

Burger King from the cafeteria is exactly what is to be expected. The burger is flat, like they don’t even pretend to use real meat. I do enjoy the fries, even though that everything there is soaked in grease. The burger is greasy, the fries are greasy, the paper to wrap the burger is greasy and the container for the fries is greasy. It makes me think even my iced tea is greasy.

But I eat it, and I enjoy it. It is my only meal of the day and it goes down great. Thank god for all that grease and fat, because I need it to hold me over until tomorrow.
