Free Food Fiends

BYU is great sometimes. Take this week, for instance. My roomies (Ann and Averyl) and I recognized a pattern in the campus events that were going on this week. We noticed that EVERY night for four or five days, there was a free food event. That's right, food free of charge. We decided to see how much free food we could hoard in one weekend. Let me lay it out for you.

Tuesday: Ward social (pizza, fizzy lemonade, and Teddy Grahams). The food was ok (not really worth it), the people were bomb. Our ward is hilarical. Also, the hotness rating of our ward is off the chizzarts. More on this to follow.

Wednesday: Honors Opening Social (pizza, chips, salsa). Ick, pizza again. No bueno. But it was free!

Thursday (This has to go in a bullet list...)
  • Honors Seminar (brownies),
  • Women's Services social (brownies - attended by Averyl),
  • Humanities department social (Hawaiian Haystacks),
  • Math major's social (pizza AGAIN - obtained by Averyl and Ann)
  • Museum of Art (hot cross buns and wassail--yummo!),
  • Honors Brownie Bash (attended by Averyl only), and
  • Random Free Food in the Fine Arts Center (cinnamon rolls, obtained by Ann)
HOLY FREE CALORIES! I almost felt guilty attending all of these events. Ann and Averyl are in the Humanities department, so they were supposed to eat haystacks, but I wasn't.... I'm TECHNICALLY not in the Honors program, but I take their classes and whatnot, so the brownie was mostly guilt-free (except for that it contained about a bajillion calories. But that's okay!) I didn't eat the pizza at the math social, but Ave and Ann did (both English majors).

Friday: BYU Fall Fest (pizza and sub sandwiches) This was too gross for words. I don't know why we felt the need to search out this food, but we did anyway.... The FREE frozen yogurt I got at Yoasis (mostly to get rid of the memory of looking at that gross pizza) was awesome, though.

Moral of the story: Free food will probably kill you if you eat it very often. Why can't they ever give out just like a salad or something?
