		<description>-their peanut butter explanation makes no sense at all and I would love to see peanut butter (and maybe whole wheat sliced bread too?) at the bagel stations.  

-they frequently don&#039;t have milk.  When they do, they only have skim milk in the tiny containers as opposed to the Milk Chug bottles.  One time, nobody knew where any milk was and they told me to just take some from the coffee-milk dispensers!

-the sushi guy was way better than the chili bar.</description>

		<description>I love the salad bar, but I&#039;m wondering why there are no longer any garden salads available at the Hark cafe?  As much as I would love to eat 700 calories with my cesar salad (croutons + cheese + dressing + chicken.... mmmm), that&#039;s not really the greatest afternoon snack, once the salad bar closes.  


Also, we can&#039;t have peanut butter in individual packages because some people have nuts allergies?  that doesn&#039;t sound reasonable.  That would mean that you can&#039;t sell any nuts products at all, and while we&#039;re at it, let&#039;s ban all milk products because some people are lactose intolerant, and hey, bread doesn&#039;t sit well with some people, so let&#039;s get rid of that one, along with shellfish.  how about people who are allergic to peanut butter just not eat the peanut butter?</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t like the same food/week section where the vegetarian food used to be last year. Students get bored of eating the same thing for lunch every day during the week, and if they are unsatisfied with the choices at the main entree section, they will find they have nothing to eat, but salad.  

P.S. Where is the sushi guy?</description>

		<description>Why are the sodas in the Hark more expensive than the ones in the machines?  I realize that RA has different costs than the vending company, but it just discourages people from buying drinks in the Hark.</description>

		<description>I would agree that the options at the global station have declined. Personally, I ate at that station every single day last year, and have probably only had it 4-5 times this year.

For one, there are fewer options. Last year, there would typically be at least 2, usually 3 main entree options. It was very rare that there wasn&#039;t something on the bar that I would like. This year, there is simply not as much variety. Most days, I take a look at the offerings and quickly move on to find something else. 

It doesn&#039;t help to have two bins of everything - everyone has to wait in line just as long, since only the first of each item is ever actually being served from. Why not take the second half of the line and put in some more items? Add some more basic, impossible to screw up items. Turkey and gravy. Fish. Chicken parmesan. You know, staple items. 

Also, the sandwich line has declined. It seems like they barely put any meat in the sandwiches this year.

Finally, there needs to be honey mustard (preferably), french, or good ol&#039; fatty ranch dressing available on the salad bar every day. Again - it seems like half the time I can&#039;t find anything I like. I&#039;m really not that picky! (Or at least I never thought I was last year...)</description>

		<description>Hi, thank you for following up on our concerns. About the comment that the to-go containers for the salad dressing are not eco-friendly, it may create slightly more plastic, but these containers are essential for those buying salads to-go. Otherwise, if you pour dressing in the salad container itself it seeps out (the stuff in my bag has gotten ruined before because of this) and the salad gets soggy. There are other ways to discourage waste (as distinguished from necessary use) of these containers, e.g. charging for them, but not providing them at all is not the answer. 

Thank you for reading.</description>
