Blue Cheese Burgers Are Not Good For You

Midterms are well on their way, and over the next few weeks we'll all inevitably hermit ourselves in our dining halls to study. Since you probably don’t want to gain 15 pounds while getting your A-, we've written up up a brief list of the most and least healthy HUDS offerings to try in your dhall this week.

Healthy: Swai with Honey Ginger Glaze
Oh, Swai! How we love you so! This incarnation of the infamous only packs 126 calories per serving. You could eat it all day if you wanted to (but you won’t).

Somehow Not As Healthy: Caesar Salad Bowl
At 192 calories, this pre-made salad gets beaten by swai. SWAI. You will still eat this instead, though, to create the illusion of being healthy, even as you add grilled chicken and extra dressing on top.

Delicious, but Not So Healthy: Blue Cheese Burger with Bacon
Admit it, you've consumed at least eight of these bad boys since they appeared on the menu as this past week’s special, maybe twice under someone else’s name at the grill. At 288 calories—131 from fat alone—14.5 g. of fat, and 880.4 mg. of sodium per serving, you should probably lay off this special.

Unhealthy, but Who Cares: French Fries
Thanks to new grill changes, you can have them whenever you want, which is probably all the time. Coming in at 359 calories per serving, you may not want to eat them every day if you’re not planning to run a marathon afterwards to offset it.

So Unhealthy We Don’t Believe It: Blondie Brownies
It's not that shocking that a dessert will come as the most unhealthy, but it’s more than just that. HUDS’s website claims that one piece of this dessert contains a whopping 940 calories and 640 mg. of sodium. Here’s to hoping one piece equals the whole tray. Otherwise, stock up on these if you finally plan on hibernating this winter.
