Not to mention the fact that it is a buffet so therefore they are potentially eating multiple plates of this unhealthy food. I can understand your reasoning for making these types of food because you are trying to serve a variety of students that contain of variety of food taste. There are possible ways to serve a variety of healthy meals that all students would enjoy. Some examples would include more grilled chicken instead of fried chicken. Possibly more steamed vegetables and make it more of a variety of vegetables instead of just steamed broccoli and cauliflower. Even just adding a section of healthy meals would work because most of the meals served around dinner time are very unhealthy and high in fat calories. Students, especially college students, eat a lot. So why not make the food that they are consuming healthy for their bodies.
Another reason as to why changing the food served at the buffet places is most effective toward fixing this problem is because in order to stay in shape or even lose weight people need to be eating the right food. If people don't, then he or she will gain weight, especially if they are not being active and exercising. It definitely is possible to stay in shape or lose weight without exercising because about seventy percent of these processes comes from eating right and the other thirty percent goes towards exercise. People can work out as hard as they want and for as long as they want, but without properly eating the right food, then all of that hard work will be for nothing. College students do not necessarily have time to work out every day as is because of school work, so consuming the right type of foods could potentially help them stay within the same weight or possibly lose weight. College students do not intend on gaining weight. First years college students are the ones who are new to everything, and they are affected the most. Students who have been in college for a couple of years or so learn how to control their food intake.
