Before attending the talk on Cornell Dining, I did not know that more went into making and upkeeping menus and food that we see every day. In a single day, Cornell Dining produces over 19,000 meals. This is something I never take the chance to appreciate whenever I eat a meal at a dining. Which, I will start paying attention to because Cornell Dining makes an effort to cater to people like me: vegetarians. In addition, Cornell Dining believes that fruits and vegetables are not only healthy eating habits for everyone but also cut down on waste in our day-to-day lives. Also, I had no idea that Cornell Dining catered to people outside of Cornell and worked for the greater Tompkins area. Cornell Dining is so good at providing excellent dining hall food that it has ranked in the  Princeton Review top ten university dining halls that give excellent dining.

One thing that upset me a little was that Cornell Dining does not plan on bringing back Cascadelis to Cornell. This is very unfortunate because I knew it was closed for this year, but I was hoping it planned on bringing it back in the following years. I would have been a faithful customer.
