Changes to Willard College Dining

Dear Willard College Student Bodies,

Starting in the Spring semester, there will be changes to food labeling at the Willard College Dining Facilities. To reduce confusion and to increase inclusion, food types will be labeled with a new and updated color coding system. Please put to memory the code as it will not be posted at the food service areas of the cafeterias. We are also eliminating signage that explains what the food is, only what it contains or does not contain. The new system was made possible by a generous grant from the Pudding Family.

Sign Color Key

Orange: Non gluten

Green: Vegan

Purple: Vegan and non-gluten

Pink: Contains seafood, including shell fish

Dark Brown: Contains Nuts

Light Brown: Contains Red meat

Black: Contains Soy

Yellow: Contains Artificial Sweetners

Fuchsia: Contains Ingredients Produced in Slave-like conditions (domestic and international)

Grey: Contains Ingredients unknown

Please commit this list to memory.

Sincerely, Joe Hairnett, Assistant Director of Dining Services
