Tonight, Harvard freshmen had the opportunity to ask University health experts any question they had in mind within the confines of Annenberg dining hall. We thought we’d bring you the information for those of you who missed out. So with a plate of glorious dining hall food, we sat at the experts’ table to ask Barbara Boothby, chief clinical dietician for University Health Services, some tough questions about what HUHDS is feeding us.

Is a chickwich really chicken?

I would say it’s derived from chicken. It’s processed, but it’s a source of protein.

How many calories would it add if I put ketchup on my chickwich?

A negligible amount.

Are these carrots healthy even though they’re covered in a glaze?

I don’t know what’s in the glaze, but it doesn’t negate the benefit of nutrition in your carrots. Vitamin A is actually more available in cooked form.
