Does Burger King have to include segregated and itemized caloric information for each and every sandwich they sell, itemized by ingredient/topping information? How many different combinations are possible with a hamburger (or pizza)? Throw a couple of different types of crust, sauces, and a dozen or more toppings and the number grows exponentially.

And in reality - if someone is too stupid to have a clue as to the nutritional value (or lack thereof) of their slice of pizza or burger - then how is some government regulation going to help that? This is just another case of radical nanny-state regulations.

Its the same mentality that has an ever-growing list of labeling requirements on nearly any substance or product sold - so much so that packaging has to grow just to have room to fit it all, even with tiny,practically- illegible printing...

What part of “this product is a poison” requires pages of text on a can of bug spray?

Why do hair dryers have to have massive tags warning consumers to not use them in the shower or bath?

Sigh...

I’m still waiting for the government regulation that prevents 2 stupid people from being fertile & reproducing. /s

Eh...too late...we’ve crossed the rubicon. They now dictate our lives.

~sigh~
