Emma Callanan, Class of 2025

Emma is a freshman currently living on campus!

Q: What is a core food memory for you? 

E: When I was volunteering at a field I met a lot of immigrants from Mexico. I could speak some Spanish but not the other dialect they were using which was native to their area back in Mexico. I couldn’t communicate with them and felt like I shouldn’t be there. After working in the fields for a few hours, we went to the mobile home complex where they lived and there were dozens of watermelons on the tables. All of us were so excited to eat cold watermelon after the long hot day in the fields. We went absolutely ham on those melons. We played a lot of games like who could eat the most melon and who could eat the fastest. It was so funny to watch. After we ate a bunch of the field workers’ kids came up and wanted to play. They were so cute and so excited about the watermelon. We played with them until it got dark out. I don’t even like watermelon that much but I love the memories associated with it.

What foods do you usually eat at home that you can’t get on campus? How are these important to you and/or the area you’re from?

E: At home we make this absolutely STELLAR Spanish rice. I miss it at school because it helped me get through my eating disorder. It was a big comfort food for me, something reliable for days when it was challenging to eat.

Do you have a recipe or cooking tip that you would mind sharing with us?
