Salty fare from sandwiches to salads will soon come with a first-of-its-kind warning label at chain restaurants in New York City.
The city Board of Health voted unanimously Wednesday to require chain eateries to put salt-shaker symbols on menus to denote dishes with more than the recommended daily limit of 2,300 milligrams of sodium. That’s about a teaspoon.

... and you dumb butts better read those warnings ... and you better follow them ... even if you have to carry around a pocket calculator and some tiny scales all the time ... and you better not drink more than 16 ounces of soda ... or the police will get you!
How about warnings for Salmonella from criminal illegals?

I wonder how much the menu printers bribed them.
America needs a “Fascist” warning, so they know the damage that can be done by excess government control.
Let’s force-feed the idoits a ton of Chef’s Chocolate Salty Balls!
I plan to go to a health spa where they have salt rooms with salt vaporized in the air. They put a flyer in my mailbox today.

Well, that’s for the lumpen proletariat who frequent the chains. The Upper West Siders get to eat what they want without having a nanny telling them they’re indulging in too much salt.
Restaurants always salt their food - season it, really - because it brings out all the flavors.
Where’s the requisite warning about big government, and how many years it will cut off our lives?
From what I can summarize about the NYC edicts on eating food in the city: “New York city dwellers are too stupid to eat without detailed instructions from their betters”.
The ghost of Bloomberg still haunts that vile city.
Oh I see, another ‘soda’ campaign....sounds like ‘bloomy!’
And all forks must be stamped with this warning - DO NOT STICK THIS FORK IN YOUR EYE
Post this sign in NYC: Feces alert! Please watch where you step.
WARNING: Large numbers of New York City residents may turn into pillars of salt without warning.
I’ll have the Salty Transfat Burger with extra salt and a side order of Salt Gravy please.
My cardiologist wants me to keep my salt intake on the low side. I’ve never used it that much anyway, mostly on potatoes, rice and eggs. But it would be useful to know if a food item is high or low in sodium. one meal won’t kill you, but enough of them in a row might!
