    I like buffets even though I never feel like I get my money’s worth. My favorite station at a buffet is the soft serve machine and the toppings. I like soft serve more than regular ice cream. I only like chocolate and vanilla soft serve. I like the dessert area’s selection of unlimited toppings from sauces to sprinkles and candies. When I go to one of those serve-yourself frozen yogurt shops, I am always worried how much the price will be when I am adding toppings, so I try to hold back.

        Tbf, he was probably right. Buffet restaurants count on you filling up on cheap carbs.

        my family said the same about me too. I just want pizza, beans, and soft serve! they said it wasn’t worth it to take me to a buffet. but now I’m a grown up and they can’t decide for me anymore!

      A little secret I learned from some students at the college dining hall: fill a cup halfway with soft serve, top with coffee. Give it a shot next time you get the chance! Don’t go with twist on your first go. Commit to chocolate or vanilla first.

        That’s a great idea! Adding some chocolate chips could potentially be delicious as well!
