“...the costs of the rule to my employees and me could be excessive, with the greatest beneficiaries of these costs being trial lawyers. This is because Gottlieb’s rule exposes my employees and me to civil and criminal penalties of up to one year in prison and/or a $100,000 fine for inadvertent violations.”
I don’t think it will be at all ‘burdensome’ for some trial attorney with an obese client to convince a jury that the ‘standard’ pizza info is inadequate & their poor fat client is a victim.
If he puts that his pizza only has 200 calories and it really has 5000 then yeah, he probably should go to prison and let the “fat client” own the restaurant.
If he is off by 25%, I doubt your fat client has a leg to stand on.
