School Snacks

[starrynight]

I'm planning to start induction very soon. What are some snacks that i can bring to my campus?

i'm a commuter but i commute by train. i'm stuck on my campus for about 12 hours. I only go to school two days a week, but I still need ideas. ...stuff to buy...ect

My campus is right near a mall with a Target in it & a regular food court w/ Subway, Sushi place, Pizza , Chinese, Japanese, Mcdys, Taco Bell,

Make up a lunch kit for yourself:
1. small insulated lunch bag--you should be able to find this in the school supply section of most stores or look in the sporting goods section.
2. a freezer-gel pack to keep foods cool---look for this in the seasonal picnic section of most stores
3. a couple of plastic reusable, microwaveable containers
4. fork/spoon
5. thermos jar (if you want to transport hot meals or more liquidy foods, like soups.)

At the college I attended there were microwaves available for student use in the student lounges or dining hall. Anyhow...

Some foods you might want to bring:
Tuna, chicken or egg salad
Leftovers from the previous night's dinner
Boiled eggs
Cheese, veggie sticks and dip

When I am out and about I go to target. In their food section they sell cheese sticks for like 27 cents, it's a perfect snack if I"m stuck out somewhere.

at the Sushi place in the food court there are

Crab Salad
Seafood Salad(ive had this before)-- it has Cucumbers, Lettuce, Seaweed,
Squid Salad, Mushrooms i think
House Salad

do any of you think these might be okay to have?

Hi Starrynight, I'm new to this too, but I do know to whatch out for those seafood salads. Most of them are made with artificial seafoods which are loaded with sugar, not to mention the deli sauces that are loaded too. I lie alot and say I'm allergic to wheat and diabetic and need to see the ingredient list. Otherwise the deli's aren't always helpful about sharing the ingredients. Just remember, Labels, Labels, Labels.

in your opinion....if you had too resort to it...what is the best pre packaged deli meats brand?

Hillshire Farm...Oscar Myer...ect

Nathans...ect

Unfortunately, Japanese food has almost as much added sugar as Chinese food. I didn't realize that until I read a Japanese cook book.
