Everyone could use 1 million dollars now and then right?  Here are five links to food sweepstakes going on right now that will either give you totally awesome food-related prizes OR enough moolah to cover your college tuition. I’m talking guest appearances on TV, free money and invitations to awesome food events.

Leah Schwartz

Rochester '17

There are two kinds of people in this world, those that eat to live and those that live to eat. Leah Schwartz lives to eat. She cried the first time her family took her to brunch because the idea of skipping a meal by combining both breakfast and lunch was too much to bare. If you're looking for her you can find her in the cheese aisle at Wegmans.
