Dietary Guidelines



The Dietary Guidelines summarizes and synthesizes knowledge about nutrients, food and exercise into science-based advice for choosing a nutritious diet, maintaining a healthy weight, achieving adequate exercise, and "keeping foods safe" to avoid food borne illness.

Standard serving sizes

WMU Dining Services works to provide standardized serving sizes to our customers. However, occasionally portion sizes may vary slightly.

Vegan options

WMU Dining Services offers a number of vegan items as a part of our daily menu options.

Trans fats

Trans fat free frying oil is used exclusively in WMU Dining Services. As WMU Dining Services is concerned about the health of the students, we now use only trans fat free frying oil for frying.
