NYU Dining is committed to providing well balanced healthy meals to our customers.  To help you make the right choices we have launched two initiatives that make identifying healthy choices a little easier.  JUST 4 U is a identification system that uses different color logo to highlight healthy benefits of our menu items.  For example, the logos point out entrees that are low in sodium, low in fat or a good source of calcium to name a few.  For more information, pick up a brochure in any residential dining location.  Our other new program, Smart Portions, are small portions of special recipes each 200 calories or less.  They can be paired with a cup of soup for a full meal or pair two together for a lite meal.  They can also be enjoyed as a light snack.

Residential Dining Locations are Tray Free Zones!
This school year we transformed the majority of our residential dining locations into Tray Free Zones. By removing trays, we reduce our carbon footprint by reducing the amount of detergents and chemicals expelled into the environment, conserving energy and water and reducing food waste.  We did a test last semester, and on average students wasted 1oz. less food when they did not use a tray versus when trays were used.  Our customers have reduced waste by 21,760 lbs. over the semester at each trayless dining location.  Great job!
