Bates College, Guiding Star in Deal

Guiding Stars has announced a partnership with Bates College to launch its nutrition navigation system program in the college’s dining facilities this April. The program, already deployed in some 1,400 grocery stores, will rate prepared meals, snacks, salad bar and grab-and-go items available in Bates’ Dining Commons and related sites. Each item or recipe rated will receive zero to three stars according to its nutritional value, providing students a simple, at-a-glance tool to quickly identify and choose foods that offer the most nutrition for the calories. The announcement comes on the heels of Guiding Stars’ launch of the first-ever nutrition navigation system in a public school this past January.
