N.Y. and Calif. pushing calorie-count legislation
June 11, 2008
The Wall Street Journal: State legislatures in California and New York are moving toward requiring restaurants to post calorie counts on their menus, following cities and counties in those states.
An official for the Center for Science in the Public Interest, a health-advocacy group that supports menu labeling, says 15 other states have introduced similar bills in the past two years, but none have been enacted.
Advocates say that laws enacted by the two influential states should spur other states to move more quickly.
