Restaurant Chains And Calories
If you live in New York and visit chain restaurants like Burger King, you’ll be able to see how many calories an item has simply by looking at their board.
Chain restaurants already must make the calorie counts of their menu items publicly available, but beginning March 31 they will have to put the numbers on menu boards and menus. The change will affect restaurants with 15 or more outlets — roughly 10 percent of all city restaurants, according to a news release from the city’s health department.
