I'd love to hear the experiences of people who've used Munch On Me. I've never bought a coupon for a specific food item before, and am wondering if that feels normal.

I think it feels normal. A lot of people have a problem with indecisiveness when it comes to deciding where to eat and a large reason for this attribute is money. Since Munch On Me provides not only deals to awesome restaurants in your local city but also deals for each restaurants' most popular dishes, you'll discover new eateries and you won't need to worry about deciding between all the delicious menu entrees.

That's an unfortunate name.

I have to agree. A good proportion of people would giggle at that.

This comment doesn't help:

The name Munch On Me edged out their next top pick: Eat Me Out.

Do college students not cook for themselves in the US?

Generally, no. There is usually a meal plan you purchase per-semester. Then on the weekends only a limited collection of dining halls are open, so most students either order in or go out to eat.

Dorms don't have kitchens, not even in the common areas, for fear of our kidults leaning more on the "kid" side and setting fire to their naughty bits or some such nonsense.

Liability concerns suck the fun out of even the most basic rites of passage to adulthood.

If they want the real taste of adult life, the kids have to go off-campus to apartments and such. That's where I perfected my famous "bachelor chow" (Instant mashed potatoes with hot dog cut into it, smothered with Cheddar and American cheese).

I know I'm not the first to suggest thing, but the name just sounds so creepy that I would never use this service. Yes, it is That Bad.
