Sodexo has announced that it has massively expanded its use of the DefaultVeg strategy at post-secondary campus dining halls. The program is now embedded at nearly 400 university and college campuses across the US. At these locations, unless the school actively opts out, every dining hall will include two stations that encourage students to choose plant-based meals: one that is entirely plant-based and one that alternates plant-based and animal-based meals as the main offering each day. (Students can still request animal-based dishes on any day).
