   Snack options at Northern are expanding, and allowing for more options. Many students go to the school store and the vending machines, but the newest option has caused excitement and discontent among students.

  Frozen yogurt is now being sold for $1.25, located in the sub sandwich line.

  How are students reacting to this new snack? Are students happy with the new, healthy, ice cream-like yogurt, or are students repulsed by it?

  Sophie Darmody (‘17) loves the yogurt option. “Everybody loves it,” Darmody said, “I get it everyday.”

  Another student, Sarah Miller (‘17) agrees.

  “It seems to be pretty popular,” Miller said. “One day, there was not any, and people were grumpy about it in my yearbook class."

  In contrast, Austin Elliott (17’), has an interesting outlook on the frozen yogurt option.

  “People complain that it’s really expensive, especially because it’s such a little cup. That’s one of the reasons I haven’t tried it,” Elliot said.

  Instead, Elliot would prefer a different snack. “I would really enjoy homemade granola bars,” Elliot said. “They’re really good, and they’re healthy.”

  Students like Miller want to focus on the healthy side of lunch. “We need healthier snacks, and they need to be -- you know -- not bruised bananas.”

  Other students, such as Darmody, enjoy all of the snacks on our current menu, which cater to all of different types of taste buds. “There’s already popcorn, slushies, coffee, cookies, frozen yogurt, chips,” said Darmody.

  Students are have high hopes for the lunches due to this change.

  “I’m not familiar with the laws that are in place, the nutrition laws; I’m not sure where we can go. I like that they’re expanding,” said Elliot.
