[00:00:01.090]Dining services
[00:00:02.030]at the University of Nebraska, Lincoln
[00:00:03.870]uses net nutrition to provide students, faculty,
[00:00:06.550]staff, and guests, the opportunity to view menu options
[00:00:10.410]and many of their operations.
[00:00:12.940]This will be a short introduction
[00:00:14.350]to the Net Nutrition website
[00:00:15.720]that will showcase some of the useful features of the site.
[00:00:18.780]We encourage you to take the time to explore this page
[00:00:21.340]and learn everything that Net Nutrition has to offer
[00:00:23.680]to improve your dining experience on campus.
[00:00:27.440]First, we'll draw your attention
[00:00:29.290]to the red navigation bar at the top of the page.
[00:00:32.350]As you can see, there's a home button,
[00:00:34.270]a drop down menu for the different units
[00:00:36.840]available to view menu items on Net Nutrition.
[00:00:40.570]Next to that, we have a show all dates tab.
[00:00:43.890]We are currently projecting menus out seven days.
[00:00:46.610]So as you can see today, you can look as far as Wednesday,
[00:00:50.870]November 17th, to plan your menus if you'd like.
[00:00:55.160]And finally, you can view specific meal information
[00:00:59.900]for breakfast, lunch, and dinner,
[00:01:01.570]as well as Husker heroes and some other lines.
[00:01:04.670]And some of our operations that are also divided out here.
[00:01:09.210]Moving to the first column
[00:01:10.820]on the left-hand side of the page,
[00:01:12.240]we have just a brief description
[00:01:14.190]of Net Nutrition and how to use it.
[00:01:17.000]And then these links down here in the bottom will direct you
[00:01:19.850]to different areas of the dining service's website,
[00:01:25.129]which will represent mobile ordering app,
[00:01:28.850]information about meal plans.
[00:01:30.690]Some of the sustainability practices we utilize
[00:01:33.580]in dining services, as well as our guest prices.
[00:01:37.910]The center column here, you will see again,
[00:01:40.480]the different dining units.
[00:01:42.330]We will go into one of these here shortly.
[00:01:44.680]These tabs will show when a unit
[00:01:46.930]is currently open or closed.
[00:01:49.420]And a few drop down menus here at the bottom,
[00:01:52.710]that give more detailed information
[00:01:54.830]about allergens restrictions, meal preferences,
[00:01:59.120]as well as some explanations of what we mean
[00:02:01.220]with our allergen free and gluten dining
[00:02:03.380]and a greater description of net nutrition itself.
[00:02:07.470]The right hand column here has a my meal section
[00:02:10.270]with a my nutrition.
[00:02:11.600]We'll go into this in just a moment,
[00:02:13.360]as well as a list of our allergens,
[00:02:16.810]restrictions and meal preferences and their icons.
[00:02:19.840]Again, we will go into these in just a moment,
[00:02:22.860]but I wanted to bring those to your attention
[00:02:24.410]here on the right.
[00:02:26.330]So, for today's demonstration,
[00:02:28.670]let's say I want to go to Harper Dining Center
[00:02:33.430]and I want to go there for dinner.
[00:02:37.770]So I've clicked into Harper Dining
[00:02:39.350]and viewed their dinner menu for today.
[00:02:41.840]As you can see, it has their different serving lines.
[00:02:45.030]You can expand these tables to get a better picture
[00:02:48.750]of what is being served on that day.
[00:02:51.770]And it provides you more in-depth information
[00:02:55.500]of what's being served on the menu.
[00:02:58.180]If you click an item, it will show
[00:03:04.860]that item's more specific nutrition information.
[00:03:08.530]You'll also be able to see this in my meal
[00:03:10.897]and just my nutrition, my meal in just a moment,
[00:03:13.910]but it gives you more specific
[00:03:15.740]nutrition information for each item.
[00:03:18.500]So let's say I want to plan my meal for this evening.
[00:03:23.170]And I am going to go to Harper, A plus line.
[00:03:28.240]I'm going to get the pot roast vegetables.
[00:03:34.550]I am going to go to the salad bar and get some deviled eggs.
[00:03:40.730]And I am going to visit the smoke house
[00:03:46.660]and get a rotisserie chicken quarter.
[00:03:51.560]So as you can see, I selected those items
[00:03:53.640]pressing the plus button to the left here
[00:03:56.310]and on the right in the my meals section,
[00:03:58.890]it added those items.
[00:04:00.210]So we see the A-plus pot roast vegetables, the deviled eggs,
[00:04:04.350]and the rotisserie chicken quarter.
[00:04:07.620]Now these are representing how many servings
[00:04:10.760]of those items you could get.
[00:04:12.210]So you could boost your serving size,
[00:04:14.520]reduce your serving size,
[00:04:16.350]but the important information that we wanna draw
[00:04:18.370]your attention to
[00:04:19.992]is if you press this my meal button,
[00:04:21.940]you can see the nutrition information
[00:04:24.730]for those three items you selected in more detail,
[00:04:29.100]you can scroll to the right as well as a meal summary.
[00:04:33.570]This is taking into account all items you've added
[00:04:36.660]to your meal and adding all this information up.
[00:04:39.750]So you can see at a glance,
[00:04:41.680]the nutrition information for your entire meal.
[00:04:45.590]I'm going to remove these items from my meal for now
[00:04:49.000]and bring your attention to the icons
[00:04:51.130]listed to the right of each meal item.
[00:04:53.640]These icons correspond to the icon lists
[00:04:57.130]here in the right side column of this page.
[00:05:00.460]So if you look to the right here,
[00:05:02.890]you can see that this pink gluten icon
[00:05:07.300]represents either contains or may contain gluten.
[00:05:12.770]If you do have a particular allergen that you must avoid
[00:05:18.230]or are looking for a certain meal preference,
[00:05:21.550]you can filter out items or ask to see
[00:05:25.710]only items that meet certain preferences.
[00:05:29.950]For example, using the gluten example,
[00:05:32.360]if I do not want a item on my meal list
[00:05:37.030]that has gluten in it,
[00:05:38.130]I would simply select contains gluten or may contain gluten.
[00:05:42.860]And as you can see, all items that contained gluten
[00:05:46.580]are no longer represented.
[00:05:48.570]So you get a better list of items that you're looking for.
[00:05:53.400]I'm going to unclick those items.
[00:05:56.150]So now those gluten items are back in my list.
[00:05:58.900]And now I'm going to tell the system that I only want
[00:06:02.360]to see vegan and gluten free options.
[00:06:07.390]As you can see, the item list grew significantly smaller,
[00:06:12.400]but all the items that I now see,
[00:06:14.190]because these are considered preferences,
[00:06:17.180]are gluten-free and vegan.
[00:06:20.420]You will also notice that some of these items
[00:06:22.810]also contain allergens.
[00:06:24.180]So that's something to be aware of, for example,
[00:06:27.020]edamame contains soy, or may contain soy,
[00:06:31.390]walnuts, obviously tree nuts and so forth.
[00:06:35.240]So this is just a brief example of how you can use the site
[00:06:39.870]to better serve your needs.
[00:06:41.620]Particularly if you have an allergen
[00:06:45.680]that you must be aware of
[00:06:47.370]when you are dining with us or a meal preference.
[00:06:51.420]So I hope you found this helpful.
[00:06:53.610]We look forward to serving you
[00:06:55.280]for your next meal in dining services,
[00:06:57.860]and we hope that you are able to use Net Nutrition
[00:07:00.739]to help you dine with us
[00:07:03.100]and have a better dining experience.
