Calorie Counts on Restaurant Menus in California
There’s a new law in California – state mandated calorie counts for restaurant chains with more than 20 stores. Many diners will ignore the information but some will look at it. But what wasn’t anticipated is that the affected chains are adding more healthful items to their menu. Romano’s Macaroni Grill has managed to squeeze 880 calories out of one salad. Wow. Reference at the Sacromento Bee.
Being more aware of what we eat, whether it’s calorie counts, or freshness or overall health benefits is a good thing!
