(NECN: Katie Daly, Worcester, Mass.) - Christine Miline is a
junior at Holy Cross. This isn’t her own private kitchen, but its pretty close.
In this kitchen at Holy
Cross meals are made specifically for students like Christine who are allergic
to certain types of food. For Christine its gluten, which means she cant eat
regular bread, pasta and other baked products.
So this past year the
college came up with a plan. She emails the kitchen staff what she would like
to order for her three meals a day, then comes to pick it up so she can eat
with the rest of her friends in the dinning hall. The chefs here know exactly
what Christine is allowed to eat.
Its really no surprise,
that the folks here at Holy Cross are seeing an increase in students with food
allergies. According to the center for disease control and prevention the
number of students with food allergies has increased by 3 percent just in the
past 10 years.
On Wednesday Ashley
Buckley came by the kitchen to pick a snack from the freezer. She recently
found out that she is allergic to bread products and picked out gluten free
pasta. For her its easier to get her meals here and its it also give her peace
of mind.
