Should calorie information be printed on menu boards?

Question

of fast food restaurants? Why or why not?

Answer 1

No because most of them have the information online or in a brochure in the restaurant.

Answer 2

no.... not on the menu boards that is way to much info to give people when trying to make a "fast food" descion.... maybe on the paper the food is wrapped in..

Answer 3

No. It's not up to the restraints to break their back trying to make sure that their customers are healthy so they don't get sued. If patrons cared, they'd check one of the pamphlets

Answer 4

That'd waste space and time of the consumer and business. It SHOULD be a lot more accessible than it is. Sure a lot of places advertise it on their websites and even mcdonalds puts it on their wrappers. But some restaurants can't even give you an idea because "things are made differently" at various restaurants. Well then they should give the different answers!

Answer 5

no, but they should definately have to carry the pamplets.  my bf is diabetic and he needs to know exactly how many carbs he is eating in a meal so he can take his insulin accordingly.  so far we've noticed most fast food restaurants have them, but i think more chain stores should have to have them.  such as chili's, applebee's, olive garden.  the food is supposed to always be the same at those places each time they make it (it's pre-cooked and packaged) so they should be able to provide the info.

but i don't think it's neccessary to put on the fast food menu boards.

Answer 6

The nutritional info is available BY LAW when asked for.  If the store sells food that's bad you are gonna have to ask if it sells good for you food.  Well they will most likely be advertising it.
