SUSTAINABILITY AT RWU

By focusing more on plant-based menus, we’re able to better offer guests more local, nutritious, and low-carbon items.

We’ve focused our vegan efforts throughout the dining program:

• The Upper Commons deli converts to a vegan destination during dinner offering many Mediterranean and Middle Eastern, full flavored options

• We’ve increased our vegan offerings during breakfast, at our desserts station, and in our Grab & Go

A full switch from traditional mayonnaise to a vegan brand called JustMayo, provides:

• zero GMOs

• zero cholesterol

• half of the saturated fat

• less than a gram of sodium

• saves gallons of water

• prevents carbon emissions

Beginning in the spring, 2017 semester, the Upper Commons now celebrates Meatless Monday’s with one station serving an all plant-based menu
