All foods served at this station are prepared with ingredients that do not contain milk, wheat, gluten, peanuts or tree nuts. This station uses separate equipment/utensils, preparation and storage areas to MINIMIZE the potential of allergens or gluten in our Pure and Simple foods. 75% of Pure & Simple items also meet our Mindful criteria, which makes it an easy and healthy choice for customers who are focused on ingredients and portion size to control weight, and other health issues.

While the Pure & Simple station is designed to allow customers an easy way to avoid allergens and gluten, we encourage our customers with special dietary needs to connect with our chef, registered dietitian, and general manager to ensure an enjoyable dining experience.  

Simple Zone

Simple Zone is our self-serve "pantry" where students with food allergies, food intolerances, or medical conditions like Celiac Disease can select items free of gluten, nuts, peanuts, & dairy to augment their breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Simple Zone provides gluten-free, nut-free, and dairy-free versions of condiments, cereals, bread, bagels, pastries, & milk. Dedicated Simple Zone appliances like a toaster and microwave reduce cross-contact risk during food preparation. Individuals with a food allergy, medical condition, or food intolerance must meet with our dietitian before using the Simple Zone.
