How students can prevent food waste
TCU Dining and Sodexo have implemented many programs to reduce food waste on campus. TCU participates in a tracking program called Lean Path, which traces pre-consumer waste and allows the dining team to adjust production and menu offers and prevent over-purchasing certain items. TCU Dining also sources food from 53 local farms and a variety of nearby partners, which eliminates food loss and emissions during the transportation process. Uneaten food left by students and other consumers goes through a “pulper” to reduce its volume by 88 percent.
