New Menu
Main Squeeze is one of the few vegetarian restaurants in Columbia. I visited there frequently over the summer. Last week, was the first time I have gone back in a while do to my time commitments, not to mention, most of their food choices are kind of pricey. The first thing I noticed was the menu changed. A few months ago they added new menu Items like the Super Mario, which was a sandwich containing hummus, tomato, lettuce and other items. Most of these options were gone as well as their breakfast selections. I talked with an employer there who said the restaurant would open in the morning, and see only a few people. I was very disappointed not only in the fewer selections, but also the fact that people weren't taking advantage of good vegetarian breakfasts. I think this is a result of an underlying issue of time management. Most people don't have time in their schedules to sit down, and eat a cooked meal in the mornings. Grab a bagel and go to work. A healthy breakfast is important to jump start the body's metabolism. As long as quick trip places like Starbuck's exists, there is no motivation for people to make time to sit down and enjoy this meal.
