Our staff retrieved purchasing information from OpenFields reporting for October 1, 2018 - September 30, 2019. This represents a full fiscal year prior to COVID-19 for a representative sample of campus dining operations. OpenFields provided an itemized plant-based expenditure list along with a sustainably/ethically produced expenditure list.

These figures are representative of all dining operations, including c-stores and national brands, on campus.
