Student Choice is an important part of the educational atmosphere, even when it comes to student nutrition! Chef King prepared grilled chicken sandwiches with roasted red pepper mayo and Caribbean BBQ pulled pork sandwiches for the students to sample. Students then voted on which one they'd prefer to see added to their cafeteria menu. It was close, but the Caribbean BBQ won with 55% of the vote!
