Want fries with that? New government rules may give hungry customers pause

[Free Vulcan]

Chain restaurants with 20 or more locations now have one year to display how many calories are packed in each item on the menu, the FDA announced late last week.

"It’s a huge public health tool to give consumers informed choice," said Colin Schwartz, who works in nutrition advocacy at the Center for Science in the Public Interest. "It can make a huge difference on the obesity epidemic."

Thanks you totalitarian thug. I'm sure all the fat slobs eating Big Macs are going to give two shits about calorie counts the same way smokers read the warnings on a pack before they light up.

No one cares Colin, but you already knew that. You just have to come up with stuff to justify your worthless existence.

I'm sure that will be a deterrent at McDonalds, Pizza Hut, Burger King, Dairy Queen, et al.

CSPI = the food Nazi equivalent of global climate change alarmism activists...

Everything from those fascists is designed to do one thing and one thing only, control what we eat.
