Students with dietary restrictions<\/a> now have more options to chow down at 麻豆原创 dining halls thanks to the installation of a new \u201callergy-friendly\u201d food station at Knightro\u2019s and Marketplace.<\/p>\n

Aramark, 麻豆原创\u2019s dining provider, has created a \u201dPeace of Mind\u201d 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 \u201cPeace of Mind\u201d station will \u201csatisfy all these requests in one location,\u201d Aramark said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis station is for everyone: anyone who likes to customize their own meal, customers who enjoy healthy options, and allergy-sensitive consumers,\u201d Aramark said.<\/p>\n

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\u00e9ed by a station chef with olive oil or sauces in flavors such as Moroccan vegetable tagine or roasted red pepper.<\/p>\n

Knightro\u2019s 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.<\/p>\n
