If a person is buying a pizza, that person is not counting calories, fats, or carbohydrates, eh?

Seems that a point of sale kiosk could be available

a. choose the size of the pizza
b. choose the toppings
ham
ground beef
bacon
cheese
sauce
garlic crust

present the calories/fats/carbohydrates per slice, per pizza

provide a web link to a page that will generate the information.

but, agreed, it isn't going to be in an ad, in menu ad (I've received those in hotels), on a radio or TV ad.

They could hand out a telephone book to each customer with the calorie-count for all 32-million possible combinations, they are just too racist to do it.

Pity the poor needy person or otherwise disenfranchised type, who does not have any access to get the info through a web link. It only makes sense that everyone be given a free tablet and/or smart phone, so that they can check their pizza calories before ordering.

You are right, except that instead of a web link, the calorie info comes up on a screen, and the customer must acknowledge that they have read and understand that information in order to complete the transaction.

I’m guessing it is “illegal” to expect people to do the math for themselves? Pizza, x calories. Pepperoni y calories. Mushroom z calories etc? Heck if they are so stupid that they have to be told every time they eat what foods are “good” and “bad” then they certainly cannot be smart enough to add up the calories they choose to add to their food. Sandwich, bread, meat, onions, lettuce tomatoes, mayo, pickles, mustard... oh, salt!?!?!
