"Dear Krishna friends,
I visited the University of Florida for a month and tried Krishna Lunch many times.  Your food represents simplicity and health.  Not only that, it's very delicious."
—Hazel H.

"KRISHNA LUNCH! I eat it 4 times a week.  It saves my meal plan-less butt!"
—Michelle C.

"Two weeks ago, a friend asked if I had tried the Krishna Lunch.  I hadn't, so I went with him to give it a try.  The food was incredible.  You manage to make vegetables taste good.  My doctor had actually recommended (she told me I eat crap) a diet similar to what you offer.  The food isn't just great, it's the healthiest food I've eaten since I started college.  Your lunch is an incredible service to college kids who are always short on time.  The alternative is bleak at best, pizza and cheeseburgers.  Health wise, nothing offered on campus or in the surrounding area comes close to the Krishna lunch.  I wish I could come to you for breakfast and dinner too."
—Sue W.

"I cannot thank you enough for those delicious, "scaled down from 500 to 5" Krishna recipes I recall from my college days at UF some 30+ years ago.  It was a wonderful birthday gift from my daughter for this 22-year-old vegetarian.  I have prepared most of them this weekend for our Yogi & his family.  We love the flavor."
—Laurie B.

"Thank you so much for this and for Krishna Lunch everyday.  I don't know what I would do as a broke vegetarian student without your delicious food."
—Nicole B.

"I recently graduated from UF and moved to Miami, which is very unfortunate because I used to LOVE Krishna Lunch! I was wondering if there is any way I could get the recipe for the Tuesday and Thursday meals as well as the salad dressing?? I hope its possible, I don't know how much longer I can go without your yummy food!"
—Laurin P.

"Thank you for offering such a wonderful experience for students there to learn about healthy, cruelty-free meals.  While visiting my daughter on campus last month, we enjoyed your delicous food.  I must say I have been craving it ever since!"
—Deborah D.

"Krishna Lunch is my all-time favorite lunch to have.  If I'm not eating it, I'm craving it. If I'm not craving it, I'm still thinking about it! I'm just entranced by your food, people, and everything else you have to offer."
—Thanh N., UF

"My grades would suffer without Krishna lunch.  I'm so grateful!"
—Chris C., UF

"I'm so jealous of your Krishna Lunch!!!  I'm going to steal your Krishnas and bring them to UCF!"
—L.W., University of Central Florida

"I just have to comment— last Friday's vegetarian chili and whatever subji that went with it was one of the best Krishna Lunch experiences I've had this semester!"
—Tiffany F., UF

"Krishna Lunch food makes my day!"
—Karuna K., Santa Fe Community College
