New York restaurants to list calories
God Bless America!
...from today, larger food chains such as McDonald's, Dunkin' Donuts and Starbucks must display the calories of their products on menus.This is great news for anyone watching their weight. An extra step I'd like to see is listing of ingredients. Products in supermarkets are required to list ingredients, and so should major restaurant chains.
The new rules apply to all chains with at least 15 outlets across the country, which in New York accounts for 2000 restaurants.
