A Typical Day in the Life

If she eats lunch in the student lounge, Jane may see the same Veggie Trigger on the lounge fridge

To track her veggie consumption, Jane fills out the Google form that Aditi sends to her every afternoon (after lunch).

In the morning, as Jane opens the fridge to pack her lunch, she sees the Veggie Trigger on the fridge, reminding her to pack veggies.

Jane packs veggies in her lunch box and heads off to school.

Challenges & Reflections

Some users bank on free lunches – Little to no control over veggie availability leave a bag

of baby carrots in the med student lounge

Some users were vegetarian and/or already in habit of eating veggies daily Perhaps reach out to more non-vegetarians?

Memorial Day + No class on Wednesdays lower response rates
