The NetNutrition website provides detailed information about Kenyon’s menu, nutrition, ingredients and allergens. The online interface displays allergen icons next to menu items containing allergens, and a filter tool allows students to create a custom view of the menu based on specific dietary requirements.
To Use NetNutrition's Allergen Filters
- Find food allergens/intolerances listed on the left side of the page. Mobile users should tap the funnel in the top right-hand corner.
- Check the box next to the food allergens/intolerances you must avoid.
- Items containing these allergens/intolerances will be deleted from your menu choices. For example, if you checked the allergen/intolerance box for milk, only items that do not contain milk as an ingredient will appear on the list of food choices.
