The Brigham Young University Creamery is a grocery store for Brigham Young University students living in residence halls on campus. Students may purchase food and other items using their Cougar Cash accounts (an on-campus debit card system) or traditional payment methods. BYU Creamery has four locations in Provo, Utah: Creamery on Ninth East, Helaman Creamery, Wyview Creamery, and the Creamery Outlet.
History
The Creamery opened in 1949, providing milk for Brigham Young University’s campus. Soon, it began to sell ice cream, cheeses, and other University-produced dairy products. Today, in addition to its own line of foods, the Creamery sells various general supermarket items, from Rice Krispies to paper plates. The Creamery on Ninth East opened in August 2000, replacing Kent's Market, which closed during the 1998–1999 school year.[1] According to the BYU Dining Services statistics, more than 191,000 gallons of Creamery ice cream are served each year.[2]
A Wymount location, in the Wymount Terrace Administration Building, closed in 2010.
In 2018, in celebration of being named most "Stone Cold Sober" school for twenty-one straight years by the Princeton Review, BYU Creamery released a new flavor of milk, mint brownie chocolate milk.[3]
Trivia
BYU's building block system abbreviates the Creamery on Ninth East as CONE.[1]
