Lunch Chat
From the 1953 Gateway
“If a lunch is carried by a student today, the
food is wrapped in waxed paper and put in a paper bag. But it is the contents
of the unprepossessing brown bags that is most interesting.
Have you ever noticed that girls inclined to
be chubby usually bring a few sandwiches, a large chunk of chocolate cake with
perhaps a candy or ice cream bar!
“On the other hand, the slender or lanky type
of girl will probably take fruit, or, if mother insists, will take a large
lunch but, not being hungry at lunch time, give or throw part of it away.
“But after all, who are we to criticize? How
about a piece of that chocolate cake for lunch tomorrow, mom?”
