The Food Services at St. George, (aka UeaT) are a collection of independent and institutional food providers. ARAMARK, as the central food provider, operates small coffee shops, snack kiosks and full service cafeterias across campus. UeaT also has independent, University-operated and branded food providers. This diversity in food providers allows us to cater to the wide range of dietary tastes and needs of the U of T community. Confused? Have a look at the About Us page to see if we can help clarify things for you. If we still haven’t answered your question, leave us a comment here.

Dear UeaTers,
This is going to be a very exciting week on campus. We know that you have too many assignments due on the same date, and no time to think about food. That is why we have made a FULL OF FLAVOR AND NUTRITION FOOD ITENARY for you to follow this week.
Monday, February 8, 2010: To kick off Aboriginal Awareness Week, First Nations House is serving lunch at 12:00pm. Check out their calendar for events lined up all week!
Tuesday, February 9, 2010: ABORIGINAL AWARENESS WEEK LUNCH
Bring $3.00 (plus tax) to Medical Sciences Building Cafeteria, Robarts Cafeteria, Sid’s Café, Veda in Sanford Fleming, Howard Ferguson Dining Hall at UC, or Sammy’s at Hart House, and try some Aboriginal Soup. We are serving a Three Sisters Soup with Corn Biscuit.
You may be wondering, who are the three sisters, and what are they doing in your soup? The Three Sisters are crops native to some Aboriginal cultures: squash, beans and corn. They are called the three sisters because they are usually planted close to each other, because each one helps the other grow. You can find the full description on their Wikipedia page.
Wednesday, February 10, 2010: Between 2:30pm and 5:30pm, stop by the U of T Farmer’s Market with your reusable mug and some cash. You can pick up cheese from all over Canada, chocolate bars, bread and fresh produce. And while you are there, enjoy a cup of ChocoSol’s amazing hot chocolate.
Thursday, February 11, 2010: CHINESE NEW YEAR LUNCH
$6.95 (plus tax) will get you Barbequed Pork with Steamed Rice and Sautéed Bok Choy at the following locations: Victoria College, Trinity College, Howard Ferguson Dining Hall at UC, Medical Sciences Building Cafeteria, Robarts Cafeteria and Sid’s Café.
Sammy’s at Hart House will serve Chicken Chow Mein.
Chestnut Residence (open to all U of T members) will also be serving a Chinese menu included in their all-you-care-to-eat menu.
The Fresh Food Company at New College, from 11:30am to 1:30pm, will serve a special menu which includes chicken balls and pineapple tapioca.
Friday, February 12, 2010: Stop by Veda in Sanford Fleming for some healthy Indian food.
With such a food-filled week ahead, we wish you nutrition and energy to help you study for those assignments and tests!

Do organic pigs get swine flu? Why did McCain’s say no to genetically modified organisms (GMOs) in the potatoes for their french fries? This conference will celebrate a forward thinking company taking GMOs off its shelves and a man who has fought against the odds. Be inspired by how the organic sector perseveres in producing the healthiest, safest food possible. Keynote speaker is Baerbel Hoehn, the first Green Party agricultural minister in Germany. Her support of organic farming programs in Germany helped the turnaround in German agricultural policy towards more sustained development, including payments for farmers transitioning to organic. Also featured are Percy Schmeiser, the Saskatchewan farmer who challenged Monsanto, Megan Westgate, Executive Director of the Non-GMO Project, Michael Schmidt, the dairy farmer recently acquitted of all criminal charges related to producing unpasteurized milk,and scientists, politicians, farmers, retailers and consumers. This conference is about your health and your food choices. Above all, it is about choosing food with spirit!

Last year, you saved 76,561 cups from ending up in landfills by using reusable mugs at the various coffee counters. You also saved $19140.25 by reusing your mug.
This year, we are aiming for 100,000 cups being replaced with reusable mugs. Can we do it??
