Healthy Dining
Our Amerifit program makes eating healthy on campus both appealing and convenient. With expanded access to healthy, great tasting cuisine and complete nutritional information, Amerifit continues to raise the bar in healthy campus dining.
Nutritional Guidelines
The foundation of our Amerifit dining program is our carefully calibrated nutritional guidelines linked to our easy-to-understand stoplight labeling system. Using the most up-to-date FDA data available, our Amerifit team has devoted thousands of hours to carefully designing a program that is both nutritionally complete and easy to comprehend.
Posted Nutritional Information in Your Café
In addition to our intuitive stoplight rating system, we will also post complete nutritional information on all daily menu features at each station.
Amerifit Technology
Beyond posted nutritional content in the cafe, we offer access to cutting technology as a tool to enable healthy dining.
Amerifit Website: the Amerifit website will give your campus community online access to their weekly menu and a host of other nutritional resources.
Amerifit Smartphone App: the Amerifit smartphone app is a one-of-a-kind tool offering access to nutritional data on items both inside and outside your campus eateries along with a helpful “scan and log” feature that allows you to keep track of everything you eat throughout the day.
THE GOALS OF AMERIFIT
Enable informed dining choices by providing easy access to complete nutritional information an ever changing variety of wellness options
Provide dining options for individuals with common food allergens along with different nutritional lifestyles (vegan, vegetarian, religious/ethnic)
Ensure that FRESH, locally sourced and in season produce is used throughout the café each and every day
Through Amerifit, you will receive:
An integrated approach to healthy dining offering easy access to full nutritional content on all menu offerings, enabling guests to make informed nutritional decisions
Healthy, great-tasting dining options throughout the café (not just at one station) combined with a creative approach to marketing healthy dining options so that guest can easily identify those options at all points of service
Overall menu concepts respecting both the growing concern over food allergens (i.e., gluten free, lactose free, nut free options integrated into our menus) and special culinary lifestyle choices (i.e., vegan, vegetarian and religious/ethnic requirements integrated throughout our menus)
Technological solutions that offer instant access to complete nutritional information along with tools that enable our guests to live a healthier lifestyle (i.e., our one-of-a-kind Amerifit website and nutritional database along with our Amerifit Smartphone app)
