What? Sustainable menu in the „Mensa“ during the Sustainability Week

For Sustainability Week, the "Tagwerk" menu line, which is based on the Planetary Health Diet, and the plant-based "Grünwerk" line will be supplemented with additional speciality dishes. Whether forgotten vegetables or newly interpreted classics, we offer dishes that round off the sustainability week thematically and culinary.

The dishes are subject to evaluation and labelling by the "KlimaTeller". When calculating the CO₂e emissions, all ingredients on the plate are taken into account, which are generated during their production from the field to the kitchen.

In this way, the KlimaTeller enables students to select their meals with climate-friendliness in mind. In addition, information is provided on the connection between nutrition and climate so that students can transfer this knowledge to their own kitchens.

On a blurred table, a plate is staged on which many plant-based foods are put together to form a nutritious lunch — vegan delicacies
