Food Allergens and Preferences
The student can meet with the Executive Chef or the Director of Dining Services to learn how to safely navigate the dining locations and discuss appropriate dining options.
The student is responsible for communicating any questions or concerns to a member of the AU Fresh management team within the dining facilities. We always recommend personal interaction with our management staff to obtain the most accurate information at the time of meal service.
Please report your food allergy to the Alfred University Wellness Center 607.871.2300 prior to arrival on campus. Should a you need further assistance regarding food allergies or dietary restrictions, please contact the Health Services office at Alfred University.
The requested health information will be kept on file by Health Services.
GLUTEN SENSITIVE
Please contact the AU Fresh Executive Chef Jason Milburn at [email protected] prior to arrival on campus. All students with celiac disease or non-celiac gluten sensitivity must meet with a member of the AU Fresh management in the dining facility most frequently visited.
The gluten sensitive (GS) icon indicates that a selection contains no gluten in the ingredients, such as wheat,
barley or rye. However, Alfred University is not a gluten-free campus, and incidental gluten may still be present in
GS labeled foods.
Menu LabelingThe “Food Allergens & Preferences Guide,” posted in each dining location, highlights the icons that are used to designate food allergens, as well as vegetarian, vegan and gluten-sensitive options.
Digital menus are posted at every station in the dining halls, which list ingredients and identify the top eight food allergens (eggs, fish, milk, peanuts, shellfish, soy, tree nuts and wheat) with icons.
Menus are also posted on our website AVIServes.com/alfred and click on the dining location.While we make every effort to provide accurate information, the manufacturers of commercial foods we used within our menus, could change the formulation of, or substitute products at any time without notice. Substitutions may also be made during food preparation.
Students with food allergies should discuss questions or concerns about specific food items with a member of the AU Fresh management team.
AU Fresh makes every attempt to identify ingredients that may cause allergic reactions for those with food allergies. AU Fresh does not have a gluten-free or allergen-free
kitchen. We adhere to ServSafe practices to avoid cross-contamination and cross-contact.
