This past December, the Food Services team partnered with @mealcare_toronto in an effort to support our #UofTFoodies family. Together, they prepared 50 holiday meal kits for the @uoftsu food bank to provide to U of T students in need.
Each kit contained all the makings for a beautiful holiday meal, including a full chicken, heirloom carrots, Brussels sprouts, and Yukon gold potatoes, along with an easy-to-follow recipe card.
Our commitment to sustainability, accessibility, and community is at the forefront of everything we do, and we are thrilled to regularly partner with programs like Meal Care and Second Harvest on an ongoing basis to minimize our food waste and support the U of T community.

To maintain the high level of quality ingredients and meal selection that our community has come to expect from our Food Services retail and residence dining locations, we have had to make the difficult decision to increase some of our prices due to the rising costs of ingredients and supplies.
This price increase (effective January 8, 2023) will affect our residential dining halls (Chestnut, New College, Campus One) and our retail locations (Sids Café, Robarts and MSB).
We thank you for your understanding and look forward to continuing to serve you delicious, fresh, and high-quality meals to support you throughout your academic journey in 2023.
