Peralta students now have a new option for convenient, discounted hot meals on campus. In partnership with Peralta District leadership, Foodture, a robotic hot food vending company, has installed hot food vending machines at each campus. Foodture machines offer chef-prepared hot meals for around $5 with easy payment options including credit/debit card, Apple Pay, and Google Pay.

Featured favorites include Pepperoni Pizza, Pasta Carbonara, and Mac & Cheese, with gluten-free options available. The Foodture vending machines are located at:

• Berkeley City College: Student Lounge
• College of Alameda: Building H Lobby
• Laney College: Welcome Center
• Merritt College: Building S on the 2nd Floor

Thanks to COO Greg Nelson and the Basic Needs coordinators for collaborating to make this new service available for students.
