How is the food?

<p>I'd like to hear from a current student how the food choices are at Elon. Elon is my number one, if I get in on the 15th. I do a gluten free diet, and am really careful about what I eat, due to allergies. Will I be able to find alot of food choices? Is the quality of the food really good, or just okay? It seemed pretty decent when I visited, but that was one meal on one day.</p>

<p>My son has been pretty satisfied which the food options. He has visited other schools and thinks Elon has more options and better quality food. The college is always tweeking it- getting student opinion and making improvements. Regarding gluten free see the following from the Elon website:</p>

<p>"What if I have special dietary needs or restrictions? Can I purchase a meal plan?
Yes! We will do everything possible to accommodate your dietary needs, restrictions and preferences. For students with celiac disease, we have gluten-free dining in McEwen Dining Hall. This station provides nutritious and complete gluten free meals and prepares them separately to prevent cross-contamination with other foods.</p>

<p>Vegans, we heard you! Harden has a vegan station providing you with delicious meals prepared separately to prevent contamination from animal by-products. For vegetarians with a little more flexibility in their diet, every on-campus dining location can provide you with a nutritious vegetarian meal.</p>

<p>If you have special needs not addressed here, please contact our Dining Office at 336-278-5333 and make an appointment to speak with our Food Service Director and let us learn how we can accommodate you.

<p>My d has not complained at all. She is a vergetarian and ends up eating most meals at Harden in the vegan line.</p>

<p>Thanks for your feedback, it is really exciting to me that they have a whole gluten free station! I must have missed that on my tour there. This makes me want to attend Elon even more, I haven’t really seen alot of gluten free products at other colleges.</p>

<p>Unfortunately, the meal plan options are going to be changed next year and some students are not happy about it:</p>

<p>There will be student forums to discuss the changes at 2 p.m. Wed., March 16 and Tues., March 29 in Moseley 217.</p>
