Finally, A Place With All The Candy And Jasmine Rice We Can Eat

Maybe we’re late noticing this, but sometime this summer, C3 turned into The Uncommon Market. We’ve been caught off guard quite a bit recently, so we are embarrassed to be surprised again, but this was straight bogus. The aisles are all different, there are boxes and boxes of almonds, it isn’t completely depressing. Also, its new name totally calls out the dining hall above it. Edgy.
But how was our shopping experience? The cashier called us baby, so that was great, but our two items that should have been reasonably priced (marinara sauce and cereal (college! woo!)) cost us $11. This might stem from Penn replacing Aramark with Bon Appetit. Still, it felt more like a real supermarket and with all that candy, we have no choice but to put spend the majority of our Dining Dollar$ on thousands of Goobers. Thanks Penn Dining!

I’m not a fan of this new organic-good-for-the-environment stuff. I felt like I was on a scavenger hunt looking for my Cheerios amongst the Kashi and Puffins cereals. And dispensers of different rices? WTH? It all feels very foreign to me.
