Choose Orange
The Choose Orange Program encourages students, faculty and staff to follow the U.S. Dietary Guidelines. Items that qualify for this program have been identified by the Choose Orange logo.
Choosing healthy options while eating on campus is easy. University Dining Services, in cooperation with the Seretean Wellness Center, is continually examining and analyzing menu items, and has marked the healthiest items on the menu with the Choose Orange symbol. University Dining Services offers a variety of healthy eating options in all of its dining facilities. More items are added all the time, so please be sure to give feedback to the dining staff as to what items you would like to see in the units.
The Choose Orange items follow the U.S. Dietary Guidelines: no more than 30 percent of total calories are derived from fat; zero trans fats; portion control; limited desserts; and more fruits, vegetables and whole grains. More criteria can be found on the official Choose Orange Web site.
The Choose Orange campaign is more than just healthy eating. It is about healthy living and the choices you make. What you eat, what you drink and how you exercise all impact your life and your health. So choose smart. Choose Orange.
