Maybe restaurants could have lists printed and available on demand. In fact I'd bet that is what it comes down to in the end. I want that info, too. The fast food chains have it on their web sites. About ten years ago there was a big response from them to make it available in their restaurants but that rarely worked. I know because I asked regularly. The restaurants either didn't have the info or didn't even understand what I was requesting. But the web sites do a good job now. At Wendy's and McDonald's you can create your own menu, choose foods, add or subtract ingredients, and get totals of calories, fat, sodium, etc. I can eat reasonably healthy burgers at each for about four hundred calories. They aren't nutritionally optimal but they aren't so bad. It seems to me that putting that info on web sites is reasonable and adequate. And it didn't take federal legislation to make it happen.
