List of Food Items Containing Pork

IISD Food Service Department releases list of menu items containing pork.

The following items have been identified by the IISD Food Service Department as containing pork.  Students and adults who for whatever reason do not consume pork should refrain from eating these products.

1. Breakfast Sausage Pizza - (pork sausage)
2. Charro Beans and Beans ala Charra - (bacon)
3. Pizza - (pepperoni and/or sausage)
4. Calzone  - (pepperoni and/or sausage)
5. Baked Beans

Note that the list above does not include items such as ham, hot dogs, etc.  The reason for this is that the IISD Food Service Department exclusively uses turkey ham and turkey hot dogs, and uses turkey products as much as possible.  Products made with turkey in place of pork are generally lower in total fat grams, yet have an excellent taste.  Thus, customers who do not eat pork can still enjoy classic entrees such as hot dogs, ham sandwiches, etc.
