As you may already know, I'm a Resident Assistant in the dorms, thus granting me full access to the dinning halls. I could spend a whole post breaking down all the dining halls on campus and weighing in with my opinion, but my focus today is the East Union Cafe and Grill. One of the great things about our dinning hall on East Campus is the grill feature. We can order hamburgers, chicken strips, grilled cheese, onion rings, fries, basically you name it and they'll make it. I'm very fond of the hamburger myself, sometimes even a bacon cheese-burger. Today I walked in and as I was waiting in line I thought I'd change it up today, maybe have chicken strips with a little honey to dip them in, but when I got there the "grill master" looked up and before I could say anything asked: "hamburger - plain, with onion rings?" so I just answered yes! The next thought that went through my head was "He knows my life!"
This of course was not the first time I've ordered a hamburger plain with a side of onion rings, in fact it's often my go-to meal when nothing else sounds appetizing. I realize though, that not everyone is as apt to go for a hamburger, for one reason or another. I recently ran across this article from BEEF Magazine that debunks some of the more common myths associated with ground beef. Because I know where my beef comes from, and the process by which it ends up on my plate, these are not items that concern me everyday, however, I realize that to some these are very real concerns. My hope is that some of those are cleared up! I encourage that if you have any questions to post a comment below! (You probably are not the only person with that question.)
