Does the institution offer diverse, complete-protein vegan dining options during every meal?:
A brief description of the vegan dining program:
KU Dining is the exclusive dining department on campus. All of our venues - retail cafés, residential dining centers, grab n'go program, snack shops, catering, and our restaurant - offer a wide variety of vegan and/or vegetarian entrée and side items. Our vegan/vegetarian recipe file comprises 28% of all our recipes. We offer vegan/vegetarian entrées at each of our concepts within the residential dining centers at all meals everyday. We provide vegan/vegetarian food options in the retail cafés and on our restaurant menu daily as well. We provide daily options of fresh fruits and vegetables in all locations along with a variety of "non-meat" protein choices.
We also have a healthier options concept called "Better Bites" that provides students with menu selections that meet nutritional requirements set by the American Heart Association. The program is monitored by our campus Registered Dietitian.
