Every day is a good day to learn more about UC San Diego, but we've chosen a particular one to spread knowledge with our feature called "Triton Tuesday." Each Tuesday, get the inside scoop with fun facts about Triton athletics, the UC San Diego campus and community, and our beautiful home of San Diego, California, in a Did You Know? format.
 
In addition to UC San Diego's world-class academics, its 30 NCAA Division II athletic titles, its various faculty honors, wide array of undergraduate majors, and its outstanding rankings in multiple national categories, the food selection on and around campus is also worth looking into.
 
For starters, six of the seven colleges have their own unique dining halls, while all seven have their own markets connected to or nearby, offering any meal-on-the-go, snack, or refreshing beverage you could think of. Although certain dining halls offer more options than others, on-campus and off-campus students, as well as visitors have access to a tasty selection of cuisine all around. 

From UC San Diego's Price Center to the Student Services building, the Student Center and more, there are guaranteed assorted flavors to grub on!
