Healthy Vending Machine Choices

Mid-day hunger pangs are beginning to kick in, and the vending machine is calling your name. But you're struggling to maintain healthy eating habits. You don't need to just close your eyes, press a button and hope for the best. Penn’s vending machines are clearly labeled so you can easily find the healthiest options.

Healthier snack options are available in all vending machines across Penn’s campus. Just look for the green "Balanced Choices" logo when you’re making your selection. You’ll find these items on the right side of every vending machine, with the slogan "Go Right, Go Green."

You can also try Penn’s 2bU vending machines for more nutritious foods and drinks. They offer tasty, healthy treats that fall within one or more of the following categories: local, all-natural, organic, vegan, gluten-free and kosher. To be sure you’re making the right choice, you can preview each product’s nutritional value before you buy it. Look for 2bU machines in the Harnwell, McClellan and Rodin College Houses as well as the 1920’s Common.
