It is our desire to take great care of our Union Bands members at all times, and we want to make sure there is safe food to eat at every snack and meal with us. In order for us to accommodate a food allergy or dietary restriction of any kind (this includes vegetarians/vegans, and those who follow religious guidelines regarding food, but should not be used for foods that are simply disliked) you MUST UPDATE CHARMS TO LET US KNOW. If you have not indicated any special dietary needs in CHARMS, we have no way of knowing and will not have alternative foods at snack/mealtime. This is incredibly important, especially when we are traveling.
*For a peanut allergy, please indicate in CHARMS if meals from Chick-fil-A can be eaten or not. Chick-fil-A uses peanut oil in their fryers.
For example, FOOD ALLERGIES: All Tree Nuts/Peanuts, cannot eat CFA.
To update information in CHARMS, log in to your/your student’s account. From the HOME page, click on the icon that says UPDATE INFO. Once on the STUDENT INFO page, fill in the box next to FOOD ALLERGIES. Be sure to click the green UPDATE button at the bottom of the page when you are finished.
If there is a food allergy situation that requires special attention, please feel free to contact Katie Geier, UBPC Food Allergy Coordinator, at foodallergies@unionbands.com to discuss your concerns.
