A lot of expense and hassle for the restaurant owners, and most people will ignore the labels anyway. Those who bother to read them won’t find accurate information—recipes change, sometimes slightly, sometimes a lot. What a crock.

Which will not deter the nannystaters. They will then point to the rising costs of government-funded health care as justification for swooping in and telling these restaurants what they can and cannot serve the public. Burger King will become Tofu King and Ronald McDonald will be trying to sell the new Quarter Pound Veggie Burger.

The only thing that enrages me more than this arrogance is the fact that when I tell people about this ("middle of the road" types), they will say how good it is that people will be informed as to calorie count with no thought as to future consequence of their own liberty and freedom. When did thinking beyond the moment and consideration of the big picture get drummed out of the populace?

Obama isn’t my mama-I don’t need or want him telling me what I can or can’t do-
