Fueled by Ramen

Okay, so that’s the swanky indie music label that manages Paramore, but it truly does speak to this generation’s college-going-post-post-punk enthusiast culture.

I’ve blogged about the merits of Ramen before, but this cartoon by our in-house BetterGrads artist Nick Schwartz sums up the perils of college cuisine much more succinctly.

It’s true. You may find yourself uncontrollably floating in your bathtub due to the mass amounts of sodium leaking out of your pores each time you break a sweat. And I’ll find myself asking how the hell you managed to find a bathtub on campus.

In preparation for this fall’s college semester, I strongly suggest you take some preemptive measures to plan for a wider selection of nutrition sources.

Fruit snacks, anyone?
