As if posting calories had any influence on what people eat. Just another excuse to harass business and play nanny to us dumb and hopeless citize--err--sheep.

Re: Food Police II
When New York City was one of the first to try to make that a law, it was intended for only fast food restaurants with many locations. It did not include the full service restaurants, the push carts on the street, the stadiums, movie theater snack counters, office building snack stands, and probably other types of eating establishments. And some of the fast food chains already had some of that information printed on the back of tray liners or web sites. I eat out everyday and ignore that information, so it might just go to higher prices for me to pay to do all that. What's next... Requiring them to post cholesterol, fat, sodium, and vitamin content?
