Obesity is caused by poor choices not scarcity or cost of healthy foods. A can of tuna a can of beans and a quarter head of lettuce OR a frozen pizza; choices choices.
OMG!!! Thank god he survived!!!!!! Seriously, wtf exactly do you think college kids eat? (By choice.) Pizza and beer and overpriced coffee drinks are staples of a typical college kid's diet. If today's college kids are fatter than yesterday's college kids it's because they're lazy and don't get enough exercise, rather than their diets. College kids have been eating "junk" probably since the first kid went off to college. This article is all about emotional manipulation. The "kids" featured are not typical college kids (one lives in a homeless shelter and already has a kid.) Bravo that she's trying to improve herself, but she's not representative of the typical college kid.
That applies to the obesity epidemic in general. There are (and have always been) healthy food options available. People like junk and choose junk and it has nothing to do with finances or being a college kid. We can't get adults to put down the chips and processed crap ---- and now someone wants to get hysterical because college kids aren't eating healthy diets (by choice)?? ROFL
What's wrong with that? Students suppose to go hungry. I was hungry when I was a student. These students who are not hungry, have no motivation to learn and become Liberals
You can buy a bag of chopped salad for 3 bucks, a rotisserie chicken for 5. People want the convenience of fast food places. They do offer healthier options but as you said, people like junk food and that’s what they CHOOSE.
I dunno whats a big deal. Students are supposed to eat junk, or not eat at all. Good for brain and will come in useful later on in life to reflect upon.
Just for giggles I searched for free food with.a half a mile of the UVM campus here in Burlington Vermont. Every morning the Chittenden Food Shelf serves hot breakfast: http://www.feedingchittenden.org/programs/ SOUP KITCHEN The Chittenden Emergency Food Shelf operates the county’s foremost soup kitchen. We are open to the entire community, serving a hot meal every day, Monday through Friday from 6:30am to 9:30am and Sunday morning from 9:00 am to 11:00 am. Our Sunday morning meal is offered through a partnership with the University of Vermont’s Campus Kitchen project. Students rescue food through the UVM dining system and prepare the meal on-site in the CEFS kitchen. Every day the COTs Daystation serves a hot lunch: https://cotsonline.org/daystation-lunch-sign-up/ LOCATION: 95 North Avenue, Burlington, VT 05401 DAYSTATION LUNCH VOLUNTEERS Groups or individuals are needed to prepare and bring in, (and serve, if desired,) a lunchtime meal at the Daystation, the COTS daytime shelter for adults, which is open 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Plan on feeding up to 50 people. We request that meals be healthy and well-balanced. Soups, casseroles, etc. are typical fare, but some people really go all out and serve roasts, potatoes and gravy, vegetables, etc. Fruit or a low-sugar dessert is welcome as well. We try to stay away from sweets and pastries because many guests are diabetic. Volunteers must be 18 years old to serve lunch. Families or groups with children can prepare the meal offsite and drop it off for our staff to serve. We recommend not bringing more than 8 people in your group because of space. ORDER LUNCH FOR THE DAYSTATION Not a cook but want to take the Daystation to lunch?

lol. you don't understand the whole concept. there is nothing about a right to employment not even in alleged, Right Wing, right to work States. You have nothing but ignorance.
Ya, alcohol ab weed is expensive, tell them to cut back and shove a 99cent burger down their pie holes and Ramen noodles are like, what, 10cents a hit!
Sounds like a good reason to get a freakin job. It's worked like that for eons. Person becomes adult. Person gets job. Person moves out of parent's house proving their worth and independence. They call it "growing up".
so, what college students would be worse off if they could apply for unemployment compensation for simply being unemployed in our at-will employment States?
