The Tiger Meal Plan and Apartment Meal Plan operate on a declining balance or debit system. Students begin each semester with a set amount of funds, Tiger Bucks, electronically added to their meal plan balance. Students then draw down on their balance as they purchase food in all Bon Appétit locations. If a student runs out of Tiger Bucks, they can add additional Tiger Bucks at the at the Student Accounts Office in Spencer Hall. To inquire about meal plan sign-ups or more information, click here.

FOOD ALLERGIES

Serving Students with Food Allergies and Celiac Disease

The dining services team is well-trained in food allergy awareness and offers a variety of options for students with food allergies and celiac disease. Ingredients and allergen information for menu items can be found on our online menus, and allergen information can be found on station signage within our cafés.

Each student must determine their own level of comfort when making selections within our cafés. To support students in this, we have developed a Food Allergies and Celiac Disease Guide. This guide provides a comprehensive overview of our food allergy and celiac disease program.

Disclaimer: Food ingredient and allergen information is provided for informational purposes in response to guest requests. Products may change without our knowledge and menu items are prepared in close proximity to other ingredients that may introduce cross-contact with ingredients not listed. We cannot assure against these contingencies. Guests with food allergies or specific dietary concerns should speak with a manager for individualized assistance.

For questions about these services or to request food allergy accommodations, students should contact:

Sustainability

Wellness also includes the health of the animals, the workers, the community, and the Earth. They’re all connected. Bon Appétit has been committed to “food service for a sustainable future” for decades, and we’ve led the food service industry in tackling many important issues, such as cage-free eggs, antibiotics in animal production, and farmworker rights.
