The Health Sciences Center Cafeteria of WVU Healthcare is recognized nationwide for the healthy food environment. This year, Food Service Director Magazine chose the HSC Cafeteria as one of the “Healthy15”-across all market segments. In 2007, the “Healthy Café” was recognized internationally by the Whole Grains Council as a leader in Healthcare. Most of the menu items are made from scratch using whole foods. Using the Axxya Food Labeling Software, nutrition labels were posted at point of service for all items in 2005. In 2010, these labels were linked to the internet menus. By entering our signature recipes into the software recipe files, the manager, a registered and licensed dietitian, determines the nutrition facts per serving. As evidenced based nutrition recommendations emerge, the manager can adjust the recipes to comply with dietary guidelines.
