Food resources

Check out the resources below to learn about food at MIT and the surrounding area:

  • MIT food map: This interactive map showcases area grocery stores, on-campus dining locations, and local favorite food spots.
  • Cooking with Antoinette: This cookbook was created by the International Student Office, and has over 50 easy-to-follow recipes.
  • Grocery shuttles: See when MIT’s grocery shuttle runs to Costco, Trader Joe’s, and Whole Foods.

As graduate student Elise N. notes in her article Eating and Socializing on a Budget in Cambridge, changing the way we budget around food can create new opportunities for socializing and saving. To learn more about budgeting, check out the OGE budget page.

The Food Security Action Team (FSAT) at MIT is continuously working to develop coordinated efforts around food security with the goal of creating student supports leading to a food-secure campus. If you would like to get involved with the work of FSAT, please email one of the members listed on the FSAT page.
