I was raised in, third generation, and can still remember when they had cafeterias. They actually had pretty good food once. But of course all that money they spent on us just couldn't be sustained, it had to go to better use. ... like court fees and lawsuits.

I can just barely remember the cafeteria. I always chose the "ala carte" option, pizza, ice cream etc. I didn't know the "good stuff" was over in the other line until the big J decided to provide a loving simplification for all the JWs...

LOL, nice name! Lemon Lime Shasta. Wow, that flat, warm soda takes me back to the waning days of the food service.

Welcome Lemon Lime Shasta! I was out by the early 90's, but I do remember that those burritos used to give me heartburn.

finding my way
I was a kid when they quit giving out food but I remember the hoagies (I liked them too), bagels with strawberry Jam and phili cream cheese and the Cheese Danish. I crave the cheese danish often!! I can't find them in stores but my husband brought be one from a vending machine at work the other day because I talk about wanting them sometimes.
Strange how I crave weird packaged convention food.

I've made many many 'muff-N-egg' sandwiches back in the day.
Oh God, I remember those things, and made a lot too. They were grotesque. They didn't even have yolks! How obscene can you get? The guy in charge of food service would come and stick a finger in a few to make sure they were warm enough. I couldn't help but wonder where else his finger had been.
Welcome Lemon Lime Shasta!
