Meal Choices Made Easy

Image
At UAlberta Dining, we understand the importance of having nutrition and ingredient information easily available to support you in your food decisions. We clearly identify special dietary choices and other food qualities through colourful menu icons that are easy to use: VEGETARIAN   Identifies foods that fit a lacto-ovo vegetarian diet, which excludes all meat, fish, and poultry, but includes eggs, milk and many dairy products, and honey.   VEGAN   Identifies foods that are made from plant-based foods only, excluding eggs, milk, dairy, honey, and any other animal-derived ingredients.   PLANT FORWARD   Identifies menu items that contain 60 grams or less of animal-based protein per serving. These menu items may or may not be vegetarian.   NO DAIRY   Identifies menu items that are made without milk ingredients to assist those avoiding dairy in their diet. Due to the nature of our kitchens, we can’t guarantee cross-contamination with milk allergens doesn’t occur.
