I ride the Washington Metro every day. Despite the notices, out-of-towners do not always know that food is not allowed on trains. You drop a few crumbs on a platform in the summer, and at some stations within seconds you will have welcomed a whole cluster of ants. To introduce food kiosks and to educate hungry passengers into not eating on the trains will be a challenge. In the past, although not recently, Metro has dealt quite harshly with offenders; in the instance I remember it was a schoolgirl, whom her parents had to rescue.
