Food Allergies 101

Having a food allergy can be difficult, especially when you are eating foods that you did not prepare yourself.  Residential Dining understands how difficult this can be and is committed to working with you so that your experience while eating on campus is enjoyable and worry-free. We have compiled numerous resources to help you navigate the food in the dining halls and make safe, confident choices. Please take some time to navigate our website. If you did not find the answer you were looking for or require additional assistance with making food choices in the dining halls, feel free to contact the Assistant Director and Chef, Ken Whitney at whitney@niu.edu
