Commie control freaks.

These pig politicians should have their tax calorie consumption stamped on their #ing foreheads.

Okay, I give up. How is it constitutional for bureaucrats in Washington DC to dictate what's on a restaurant menu in Boise Idaho?

It’s not enough that you can get calorie booklets at almost any store under the sun.

When will these control freaks realize that it is vain to lead a horse that won’t drink to water.

Well there is one virtue to places like McDonald’s doing this. It becomes obvious that their food isn’t as calorie sinful as many liberals would make it out to be.

A pain and the neck and the ugliest dude to ever have lived on this planet. The stuff nightmares are made of. Sigourney Weaver wouldn’t even take on that crap.

Half of all Congresscritters are below average.

Interesting. She didn’t put it into plastic surgery.

When the horse stomps them like the snakes they are.

Totally agree. Anyone that’s watching their calorie intake knows what they’re getting into when dining out.

Take notice of the Democrat constituents at grocery checkout. All the food is labeled, but the fools are still obese.

Heck, my wife has an app for her phone that allows her to check the calories on just about anything edible - even digs down to specific brands/fast food joints.

This is more about exerting even more power and control over those who produce jobs and services.

Tol, I don’t mind people beating up the Dems over this, but it’s already done in Europe. You see a calorie count and a price for each menu item. It actually comes in quite handy when trying to figure out whether you actually save money by ordering a larger size (and results do vary).

I remember when the Dems demanded places like McDonald’s list calories. The calories turned out to be not nearly as bad as assumed. Although I only buy from the value meal. Cheeseburger (300), small fries (200) and diet coke (0) only 500 calories. For 3 bucks.
