Percentage of total dining services food purchases comprised of conventionally produced animal products:
A brief description of the methodology used to track/inventory expenditures on animal products:
Aramark distinguishes conventional vs. non- conventional animal products through third party certifications. Products without a certification are considered conventional, as Aramark does not make their own claims about what is/is not sustainable. Aramark uses a product tracking database where they can track through suppliers methods of sourcing these types of products.

A brief description of the vegan dining program, including availability, sample menus, signage and any promotional activities (e.g. “Meatless Mondays”):
Aramark ensures they have a vegan substitution for the protein, on our home zone in our residence dining facility with every meal. They also have a rotating complete protein program and in retail locations, there is always a vegan option. There is a dedicated vegan station at lunch and dinner at South Village Dining Hall. Aramark also hosts Meatless Monday's.
