Do you like protein? Do you like a sweet treat in the morning? Do you like customizable options? Do you like consistency? Well then, I’ve got the perfect Stav option for you: a Greek yogurt bowl.

The yogurt line, situated directly to the left when you first walk into Stav, is often overlooked by students. But for those in the know, it’s one of the most reliable — and surprisingly versatile — breakfast (or anytime) options on campus. The setup is simple: a base of Greek yogurt topped with your choice of granola, cereal, honey, and peanut butter. Whether you’re looking for something refreshing before 8 a.m. or a protein boost after the gym, the yogurt bar never disappoints. 

Firstly, there is never a line. Tired of the mile-long, winding wait for some decently good chicken nuggets? Wait no longer — the yogurt bar is your fast-pass to satisfaction. You can walk right up, scoop your yogurt, and customize it to your heart’s content. No need to hover awkwardly in front of the Stav workers while they switch out the fries or go back for seconds because you were given exactly one piece of chicken in your chicken curry bowl. With a yogurt bowl, you can scoop to your heart’s content and be as generous with toppings as you please. 

And the best part? The yogurt bowl is endlessly adaptable. Feeling minimalist? Go for plain Greek yogurt with a drizzle of honey. Have a sweet tooth? Add a sprinkle of fruity cereal for that perfect sweet crunch. The possibilities are endless (not to mention the rotating granola options). 

Finally, for all of those with a fitness goal in mind, a one cup serving of plain Greek yogurt contains approximately 19 to 25 grams of protein, so don’t let anyone tell you can’t enjoy a sweet treat and meet your macro goals. 

So, with all that said, next time you’re hungry and in a hurry, skip the crowds and turn left. The good ol’ yogurt bowl might just become your new campus comfort food.
