Students with dietary restrictions now have more options to chow down at 麻豆原创 dining halls thanks to the installation of a new 鈥渁llergy-friendly鈥� food station at Knightro鈥檚 and Marketplace.
Aramark, 麻豆原创鈥檚 dining provider, has created a 鈥漃eace of Mind鈥� station that debuted in June at both dining halls. The station was added by the 麻豆原创 Dining Services team in response to a survey of 3,000 students on their dining experiences. In the survey, many students wanted to see more locally grown food options along with increased requests for specific dietary accommodations. The 鈥淧eace of Mind鈥� station will 鈥渟atisfy all these requests in one location,鈥� Aramark said.
鈥淭his station is for everyone: anyone who likes to customize their own meal, customers who enjoy healthy options, and allergy-sensitive consumers,鈥� Aramark said.
Guests can create a custom meal by combining fresh, local produce, vegan protein items and gluten-free grains such as rice noodles or quinoa. These custom combinations are then saut茅ed by a station chef with olive oil or sauces in flavors such as Moroccan vegetable tagine or roasted red pepper.
Knightro鈥檚 and Marketplace will also continue to offer existing gluten-free options: gluten-free cheese pizza (upon request), gluten-free Rice Chex cereal, chicken breast and turkey burgers at the grill, select side dishes and select fair-trade, organic Green Mountain Coffee drinks.
