UNH 餐厅 can help you make good eating decisions that will satisfy your urges while keeping you on track nutritionally.
With a new 菜单 of Change initiative, UNH 餐厅 is one of 37 university programs to join and is an active member on a number of work groups driving this initiative nationwide.
A key player in 健康y UNH’s commitment to make UNH the healthiest campus in the nation by 2020, UNH 餐厅 has eliminated virtually all trans fats, introduced all natural and organic foods, and reduced our use of sodium. Our Guiding Stars nutritional program rates food based on nutritional value according to the recommendations of the 食品及药物管理局 and the USDA. Choosing those foods is simple; just look for the stars. 高纤维食物, 维生素, minerals and whole grains receive one to three stars for good, 更好的, best nutritional content, with three stars denoting the best. Trans fat, saturated fats, cholesterol, added sugar and sodium impact the ratings.
Have dietary restrictions? We can accommodate gluten-free diets, multiple food allergies and intolerances. Just make an appointment with our 注册营养师 and she will help get your nutritional needs met.
菜单 of Change Initiative
菜单 of Change strives to create a dynamic, invitational network of leading university based-scholars, foodservice business leaders and executive chefs to collaborate on research and education in support of culinary-centric, evidenced-based food systems innovation within and beyond universities. The initiative leverages the unique position of universities to advance healthier, more sustainable life-long food choices among students-who will soon be parents and adult decision-makers by connecting a diversity of insights from academic programs and dining services. In 2012, The Culinary Institute if America (CIA) and Harvard School of Public 健康 (HSPH)-Department of 营养 launched 菜单 of Change. By embracing the 24 principles and implementing them over time centered around Menu Concepts and General Operations and Food and Ingredients our goal is to migrate guest’s appetite towards healthy, 可持续的选择. UNH 餐厅 is one of 37 university dining programs to join the 菜单 of Change initiative and is an active member on a number of work groups driving this initiative nationwide.

指引之星计划
UNH 餐厅 Services was pleased to become one of the first schools in the nation to partner with the Guiding Stars® Licensing Corporation to supplement our nutritional labeling to encourage healthier eating throughout our operations. Combining the Guiding Stars® rating system with product signage that identifies key information like calories, grams of fat and grams of carbohydrates provides for one of the most complete simple to use nutritional guidance programs available today.
UNH 餐厅 introduced the Guiding Stars® program in an effort to inform students, faculty and staff about the most nutritious food choices. Guiding Stars® features a proprietary algorithm that rates the nutrient density of foods per 100 calories based on USDA, 食品及药物管理局, 谁, NAS, 还有其他指导方针.
The ratings provide a measurement of best nutrient value for caloric intake and use a star ranking system to indicate the more nutritious food choices. (One star is good, two stars are 更好的, and three stars are best. No Guiding Stars means the nutritional value of the food does not meet Guiding Stars' rigorous criteria).
Since the introduction of the Guiding Stars® program, UNH 餐厅 has been challenged to rethink ingredients and incorporate more whole grains, fruits and vegetables and fiber while reducing added salt and sugar. Early feedback has been positive and the Guiding Star® ratings are now used at our retail locations all around campus.
