"Coming Soon to a Menu Near YOU... CALORIE COUNTS!

They've been popping up all over the place: in NYC, in California... And now they're going nationwide. You may not have heard, with all the hubbub about health insurance, but the recently passed health care legislation has laid down a new food-related law: As early as next year, ALL CHAIN RESTAURANTS with 20+ locations will be required to display calorie counts on menus and drive-thru boards. Plus, stats on vending-machine goodies will need to be displayed. WHOA. No more feigning ignorance, people -- the truth will be looking you in the face when you pick your food items. We're THRILLED that people countrywide will soon be able to make more informed decisions about what they eat. Way to go, USA!"
