Healthy Eating

Providing you with healthy options is something your dining team proudly does every day. We help you select delicious, nutritious and satisfying meals, snacks and desserts by highlighting well-balanced menu choices and providing nutritional information and tips to help you make choices that fit your needs.

Food Allergies

We take pride in serving you wholesome ingredients, preparing recipes accurately and providing nutritional analysis and ingredient statements through our online menus and nutrition calculator. From our general manager to our front line servers, we work carefully to address food allergies, celiac diets, or other special dietary needs.

We want to meet one-on-one with anyone who has individual dining needs to ensure that your dining experience is safe, delicious, and social. If you have a food allergy/special diet concern, please call or send us a note using the feedback form.

Menu allergens

Our menu system provides ingredient statements specifically highlighting the big nine allergens: milk, eggs, shellfish, fish, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat, sesame & soy. Guests may check on the presence of allergens prior to planning their meals using the online menu, Bite app, and nutrition calculator. The absence of an allergen listed on posted or electronic product signage is not a guarantee that the product is free of that allergen. The guest is responsible for communicating their allergy to a supervisor or manager to ensure safety

Sodexo employs over 500 Registered Dietitians (RDs) across the United States. Registered Dietitians work closely with Sodexo's culinary team to develop balanced and fresh menus and provide you with the nutritional information and tools to make healthy choices.

Simple Servings

simple servings

Simple Servings is our resident dining option, providing safe and appetizing food choices “ready to go” for our customers with food allergies, gluten intolerance, or those who prefer plain and simple foods. The Simple Servings station does not offer foods made with the FDA most-common allergens of peanuts, tree nuts, shellfish, wheat, soy, milk products, and eggs. All foods offered will be made without gluten-containing ingredients. Simple Servings staff members are carefully trained to avoid cross-contamination of their menu items. Separate equipment, storage areas, utensils and preparation areas minimize, but do not totally eliminate, the chances of gluten and allergens in our Simple Servings foods.

Simple servings is open to anyone and is located at Kise, running seven days a week from 11AM-2Pm and 4:30PM-7:30PM on weekdays and 11AM-2PM and 4:45PM –7PM on weekends. Check out our menu for Simple Servings menu today at @MSUMDining
