International Food Day

International Food Day

By Gloria Saldivar

Students and Faculty from all over campus got together to enjoy International Food Day here at Taft College. The five dollar fee to eat the delicious food was a way to raise money for different clubs, departments, and sports here on campus.

There was a designated area that was set up so people could comfortably eat their food in a cool shady area that protected them from the good ol’ Taft heat; which nobody seemed to mind. People seemed to be having a good time while they ate their food and chatted with their friends and co-workers.

People who arrived early got to eat right away before the long line was formed. Everyone wanted to get a taste of the food from all over the globe. Students and faculty were able to keep an open mind when they tried the new exotic foods they were not used to eating. There was plenty of food to eat, so of course people were able to get seconds. There were a lot of positive nods coming from the food tasters so I think it is safe to say that International Food Day was a success.
