Nutrition Tools at UBCO

This page helps you navigate menu icons, allergen lists, nutrition information and online menus like a pro.

Menu Icons

Menus in many UBCO Food Service locations are marked with icons. These icons let you know if a food item is prepared to meet your dietary preferences.

Vegetarian

Identifies menu items that fit a lacto-ovo vegetarian diet, including eggs, dairy and honey.

Vegan

Identifies menu items made from plant-based foods only, and exclude eggs, dairy, honey and other animal-derived ingredients.

Ocean Wise

Identifies menu items using sustainable seafood procured in a way that ensures the long-term health and stability of that species.

Halal

Identifies menu items that contain third-party Halal-certified protein.

Made Without Gluten*

Identifies menu items that are made without ingredients containing gluten.

* Please Note. We cannot guarantee items made in-house are gluten-free due
to the risk of cross-contact. If you have celiac disease or a gluten allergy please
let us know before ordering.

Allergens

UBCO Food Services takes food allergies seriously. The most common allergens are labelled on all prepared food items – peanuts, tree nuts, wheat, milk, eggs, sesame, soy, fish, shellfish, mustard, sulphites and gluten. Learn more on our Allergies page.

We do our best to accommodate students with allergies. Here are three ways to prepare for a year free from allergic reactions:

Connect with the Registered Dietitian

Our Registered Dietitian will help you find safe, delicious and nutritious menu choices on campus, and while cooking at home.

Learn About Allergen accommodations

While we don’t have allergen-free facilities and can’t guarantee a completely allergen-free environment, we take steps to minimize the risk of exposure. Read more here.

Ask before you eat

Always tell your server about your allergy before ordering. Ingredients can vary at any given meal. If you have questions about ingredients or preparation, ask to speak with a chef or manager before placing your order.

Online Menus

Plan ahead, or search for nutrition info while you’re at your dining location!

Menus for Sunshine and Comma are now listed online through a free platform called Nutrislice, which provides menu icons, allergens, nutrition information and ingredient lists for all the food available at these locations.

Filter the menu to see options that meet your dietary needs, calculate complete nutrition information for a meal, and create an account to save your preferences.
