Would listing the actual calories that are in a fast food menu item be a good idea in the USA ? What do you think? Here in Ontario, the large chains like Burger King, McDonalds, Harvey's, Denny's, A and W, Pizza Pizza , and Tim Hortons MUST list the calories in each of their menu selections on the menu and on the advertising materials. I just got a flyer from Pizza Pizza this morning in the mail, and it includes information about what each menu selection's calorie count is. The bacon poutine contains 720 calories, while the 4 topping large pizza has 450 calories per slice. JimB.

It became law in the UK in 2021
 
(Would have been better if you'd put the link in your post, rather than the thread title where we can't click on it to visit the web page ... and it looks like the link got cut off in the title.)
