It's Food Donation Friday! Hopefully, you've seen the donation boxes in the dining hall, and maybe you've already donated (Thanks!). If not, think about this...
More than 47 million Americans struggle with food insecurity with college students experiencing hunger at more than double the rate than individuals not in college. Sodexo is partnering with the Move Out for Hunger campaign again and we hope you'll join us! It’s easy to participate!
Look around your dorm room or residence…are there any unopened, nonperishable, unexpired food items that you don’t want to take home with you when the semester ends? If so, visit the dining hall and ask for a paper collection bag to fill up and return to dining services. Feel free to bring newly purchased items as well, to place in our collection bin through May 8th. Our team will ensure it gets delivered to the campus food pantry and to those in need.

Today's Earth Week theme is "Food Waste Focus" and reducing waste overall. Here are some ways campus dining supports this initiative:
- Reduce kitchen food waste (pre & post production) by tracking data with a program called WasteWatch/Leanpath, batch cooking and adjusting recipe quantities based on leftovers information.
- Reducing/eliminating single use disposables by using china and silverware and implementing to-go container programs such as ReusePass.
- Donating excess food to campus pantries and recovery coolers.

How will you help reduce food waste in your daily routine?

Our 2nd Annual Battle of the Chefs competition took place on February 5th and proved our teams could create inspiring, delicious plant-based dishes. The competition was fierce, but one dish rose to the top…A flavor-filled Hoisin-Glazed Tofu Bao Bun with Kelp Kimchee and pickled vegetables from team Coastal Sprouts.
Today, you will have an opportunity to try it for yourself at the International Station during lunch in Kilburn! Enjoy!

Happy Friday! Just a reminder that today is the last day to get FREE bonus money when you purchase dining dollars online. On chilly days like today, you can use it to warm up with a hot coffee or plan ahead and stock up on snacks and energy drinks for late night study sessions during finals week. These funds will roll over to spring semester, so if it's not spent by 12/19, you can use them during spring semester.
