College mess food

It makes airline food look like Barbecue nation.
"I'll add some yellow food colouring to this rice and name it 'Veg Biriyani'. Much smart. Such brains. Should get Nobel prize"

It defines the boundary of edibility. The definition of mess food is perfectly summed below:

"The collection of various organic compounds to create a mess which is worse than both the Fantastic Four movies (combined)" 
It's an Institute of Eminence, right?

It's ironic enough that the place is called a "MESS"

I still remember a time when I wanted to put certain objects in my mouth (Wait... This sounds a bit different in my head)... that urge is gone now, thanks to this mess (I should stop using this pun, it's going overboard).

The food is as blatant as the emotions showed on Reality TV shows. They try to spice it up by naming their stomach-romping delicacies with proper restaurant names, but just like the Indian cricket team playing on foreign soil, it never lifts up to its expectations.
Caterer: Take your yellowish goo with a pinch of greenish goo.


Mess food was invented to make us repent for taking home food for granted. I miss my mom(or dad or anybody who made your food back home), now their food feels like a Michelin star meal. I feel like that critic in the ending scene in Ratatouille whenever I go home eat food. My heart cries every time I have to leave home for college.
But...hey...A man's gotta eat, right? We do, somehow. We substitute food with canteen food. Every Indian student gets to live the so-called American cuisine ( it's actually just non-Indian cuisine)  in college. 
Maggi rice 
Coffee water
Mini-pizza Rotis 
Patties Vegetables
Pastries Indian sweets

Meet Madhusmita, she is eating after 3 days of hibernation.

Our condition was any way bad. Now, it's worse. No wonder college students look like jail inmates in a fancy dress competition.

Local Trains

Image
This is what happens when something is too cheap. Can you see a train? I see a human centipede A train travel's quality depends on 3 factors: Space in the compartment Number of people Cheapness of ticket It seems while maximising 2 and 3, they completely forgot about 1...like completely. How is it physically possible to fit so many people into such small spaces? (No " that's what she said" jokes) The only other place I have seen so many living creatures in a single place is a bee-hive. It is amazing to see how people get perplexed by the sight of other passengers fit into an already Indian  filled train cabin (you know it's a quite a lot if it is Indian filled), it looks like they go into some other dimension... Who thought the gateway to some other dimension would be some local train station 40 km from Kolkata? It seriously feels like living in an armpit. We'd give the game "Plague Inc" a good run for their money by ac...

Chappals (Sandals)

Image
It's a bikini for your feet.   " Look at that *insert derogatory   terms  to demean feet* "                                 Chappals are comfortable to wear whilst keeping your feet dry and cool. However, it's more than that. They grow into your feet. In hot and humid (basically Indian) conditions, these dinguses are very suitable. No other accessory bonds with your body like a chappal, it's almost like a "mother hugging" your feet.  The oldie but goldie Chappals                                                           (Sidenote:National Footwear, eh?) Chappals: They are Cheap... (Because it consumes less material to make) comfortable to wear Healthy for your feet The only pro...

Bis-kut

Image
No, I refuse to spell it as "biscuit". You only get the emotion when you say bis-kut.  Without it, all evening snacks would be... I don't know what to say, I have never had just plain chai.... ever. Let's just say it is blasphemous to do so. Their coupling would topple the popularity of Viruksha, easily. (Although, not as cute) Saath janam taak ek saath But you can have bis-kut alone, any time of the day, anywhere in the world. It is sort of a universal food, (kind of like Maggi) and it takes no effort to make... because it is pre-baked. But unfortunately, they don't possess the power (or the nutritional value tbh) to be a meal (if you brave enough, it can be, not advised). I once had one entire packet of bis-kuts for dinner because there wasn't good food in the mess... My stomach disagreed with the choice of food, and a few hours later gave me a piece of its mind. My stomach after gulping 2 packets of dry mari-gold There is a clear cut met...
