[Palindrome] Food to Bring to the Mystery Hunt

FOOD
by Eric Albert

People should bring food that they like to eat, and lots of it.  Rich 
food is fine, but, in my experience, you should definitely balance it 
with much "healthy" food.  I find that fruit (especially clementines, 
bananas, and apples) works very well for me: it's portable, tasty, 
keeps my blood sugar level at a good place, and doesn't make my brain 
sleepy.  I also recommend low-fat stuff you can eat out of the box, 
like cereal and Triscuits.  Your diet may vary.

The MIT student center on Massachusetts Ave. has several eating 
places, including a 24-hour coffeehouse, and a grocery store 
(LaVerde's) that will make sandwiches for you.  There is a large Star 
Market, open until midnight (we think), near the University Park 
hotel that has made-to-order sandwiches, sushi, and various other 
prepared foods.  The MIT campus is well-populated with vending 
machines for both snack-type food and beverages.

It is a tradition for some members of our team to go to Mary Chung's 
(Chinese) restaurant on Friday evening and bring back food for those 
who want some.  If the phrase "Mary Chung's" means nothing to you, 
then you are required to order suan la chow show -- it's an MIT 
campus regulation.

Warning:  DO NOT BRING ANYTHING THAT YOU DON'T ACTUALLY WANT TO 
EAT.  At four in the morning, you will eat it.
