A cereal bar, awesome idea!

We have a few food-related things at Indy Hall:

1) a vending machine that is stocked weekly with all local-made snacks and
beverages. Tastycake may have been bought by an Atlanta company, but
they're still employing Philadelphia workers at the factory. The owner of
this new business (offering the vending machines) is a member of Indy Hall
herself.

2) We have a weekly "meal plan" that's organized by a few of our members
and a local personal chef. You pay $20/month (5/meal) for a "whatever she
picks" catered lunch. It's always an entree + a fruit or salad. It's
delicious, nutritious, and heck - $5.

3) Our newest membership subset is called "CounterCultr", a group of
foodies that swap recipes, do food photography, menu-writing, and other
creative work surrounding food. Us having a full (albeit non-commercial)
kitchen means they're not shuffling between each others' kitchens every
week while they experiment with their food ideas. The group is growing and
a lot of fun. Bonus: they leave leftovers for the next day for everyone to
share

This is all on top of the usual coffe-provisions, the occasional pizza
lunch, the periodic snack samples dropped off by various vendors, and
generous members who bring in bagels, pretzels, fruit, baked goods, etc to
share.
