Chartwells’s Kwantlen Cafeteria is better than eating from a dumpster, the biggest compliment it will get from the starving students at Kwantlen Polytechnic University.

While I say that with complete honesty, the waffles are amazing.

Being a vegetarian, I will immediately criticize the lack of meat-free products available to the animal-savvy population, and present a big “thumbs down” to Chartwells for failing to provide me with the tofu sandwich I longed for.

Ignoring the fact that my choices were limited, Chartwells produced the worst tasting cafeteria food I have ever experienced.

The cranberry scone was a definite mixture of flour and water, and despite its title, was severely lacking the appearance of cranberries.

The cafeteria’s hash browns were served with slices of orange, an odd combination, especially if you enjoy eating the white sticker that often accompanies that orange.

Not only was the food boring and tasteless, but the meal provided me with the worst yogurt experience of all time.

I can’t even describe how horrible that yogurt was, as the mere thought of it makes me want to run home and cry.

A mixture of granola and expired-tasting milk is never good, no amount of frozen fruit will hide that.

The $2.95 waffles however, were amazing.

Textured perfectly and served with a mound of fresh whipped cream and tropical fruit, the sweet tasting waffle was a miracle among the disappointments.

For an average of $6 a meal, I would avoid Chartwells at all costs, unless you want a waffle.
