Sunday began my Christina’s Pizza binge. It wasn’t unusual for me to revert to this method in order to eat—rarely was there food in my apartment besides take out. Christina’s Pizza was the little sub shop behind my apartment, and they were cheap, fast, and knew me by name (this wasn’t due to their exceptional friendliness, just the fact I’m there every day). Sunday was a bad day for food. I had no breakfast, there was nothing to eat for dinner, and my routine was to be lazy and watch football all day. So the only remedy for this, at least in my mind, was to order out. On Sunday breakfast, lunch, and dinner was one meal at one o’clock in the afternoon, just in time for football. I called Christina’s, and ordered one of my favorites, a large chicken cutlet sub with lettuce, tomato, mayonnaise, and barbeque sauce.
Christina’s chicken is of good quality. It is juicy and tender and the breaded cutlets are not too over done. One of the reasons I love this sub so much is the barbeque sauce. It is thin and spicy, with a consistency more of a hot sauce then a barbeque sauce. I feel that it complements the chicken and the cold crunch of the lettuce and tomato well. Christina’s usually layers their subs mayonnaise first, then lettuce and tomato, then chicken, then the barbeque sauce. I like this order, although the barbeque sauce gets a little messy when trying to squeeze in a bite.
This sub became my three meals a day this Sunday. I ate it at one, and I didn’t eat another thing until Monday. The life of a hungry college kid can be just that sometimes: hungry.
