[QUOTE="equipoise, post: 1532870, member: 63056"] I think that this is a wonderful idea -- but maybe doesn't go about it the best way. Avoid legal issues, but go for consumer pressure instead. Nutritional info does need to be available, and some chains make it very clear -- so why not get it printed on menus? Pressurise chains into making carb content clear (begin with Pret a Manger, Itsu, Carluccio's, etc -- then move along) -- the more that do it, the more you establish an expectation that others should do the same. Obviously it's more difficult for individual restaurants with changing menu and less standard preparation, so no need to make it compulsory. And if consumers say they don't want to have to see unpleasant facts --- well I suppose that's how we ended up with Brexit... [/QUOTE]
