  • Oh no, have I made a mistake?

    So being a poor college student, I basically stick with the meal plan that is part of my room + board. Meaning I go to the dining hall and eat what they have. So far, I've been mostly eating eggs + bacon/sausage/ham for "brunch" and then dinner is some form of salad greens (usually they have iceberg lettuce, but sometimes it's spinach) and a turkey burger or some kind of meat.

    Now, I never really took notice of this before, but the grilled chicken they serve... might be breaded? Not breaded in the sense that fried chicken is. But I mean it's definitely seasoned, and maybe have a bit of flour on it as well. I know my mum usually throws chicken breast in a bag with flour and salt/pepper before she cooks it. I honestly couldn't tell if they do the same. It's not a huge deal if it's lightly floured, is it? I didn't really have many protein options tonight, so I hope this choice wasn't a bad one.

    IrishRain, it may just be coated with a seasoning spice mixture, which would be okay. Is there someone you could ask how it was prepared?

    If in doubt, you can just peel the skin off and eat it without skin or coating. I've done that with fried chicken in a pinch.

      Oh, thanks Sunny! You just reminded me of something they have online.

      I just went on the Dining website to take a look at the menus, and next to the grilled chicken is a little "GF" for gluten free. So that's a good sign! I think, then, that it must be just seasoning. Thank goodness, because I looked up the carb count on 1/10th of a cup of flour, and it's 10 carbs! Yikes.
