We respect the choices our customers make to healthfully meet their nutritional needs. We use standardized recipes to ensure that each menu item contains the ingredients that are listed on the recipe. Recipes are available for review at each dining unit. The servers can also answer questions about the ingredients in every item we prepare. Vegan items are labeled with a “Vegan” sticker on the nutrition label card in the serving area. Vegetarians should be aware that our fryers are used for both meat and vegetable products. A list of deep-fried products is available from the Nutrition Specialist.
Vegetarian and Vegan Foods
Many of our standard items are vegan and therefore suitable for both vegans
and vegetarians. These include most of the items on the salad bar and
most of the items on the World Harvest bar.
Vegetarian and/or vegan soups are offered daily. Vegan soups use a vegan
soup base. Vegetarian soups contain milk or egg products.
Main dish offerings on the entrée service line always include a
vegetarian item and often a vegan item. Additional vegan items and organic
cereals are available in the East Quad Dining Room.
World Harvest
The World Harvest Vegetarian and Vegan Bar
offers a daily selection of vegan and vegetarian items from around the
globe. Here are the items you will find for each of the World Harvest
themes. Enjoy! Also, if you are a vegan, you may wish to dine at East
Quad where additional vegan entrees are featured daily.

A word of caution about websites and the Internet in general: just because you found a piece of information on the Web does not mean it is true. Anyone can put up a website and put whatever they like on it. In many instances, incorrect information has been copied from site to site and never verified. If you're not familiar with the person or group hosting a website, make sure you double-check any information you've found on that site.
