“Did you really think we want those laws observed?" said Dr. Ferris. "We want them to be broken. You'd better get it straight that it's not a bunch of boy scouts you're up against... We're after power and we mean it... There's no way to rule innocent men. The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren't enough criminals one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws. Who wants a nation of law-abiding citizens? What's there in that for anyone? But just pass the kind of laws that can neither be observed nor enforced or objectively interpreted – and you create a nation of law-breakers – and then you cash in on guilt. Now that's the system, Mr. Reardon, that's the game, and once you understand it, you'll be much easier to deal with.” ― Ayn Rand, Atlas Shrugged

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.

I just posted that same quote on a FB group I’m a member of. I opened an Etsy store to sell simple little baby items; bibs and burp cloths mostly. Until I discovered that those items are regulated by the US Gov’t. All children’s items are regulated by the US Gov’t. They must all be permanently tagged and tracked. They must all be tested for lead and safety unless they meet a very limited list of materials. To avoid testing you must register as a small batch generator and then you can use the certs that the manufacturers have for their testing of the individual materials that you use to make your finished product. Some items aren’t allowed to be made anymore, like jackets with drawstrings, because over the 25 years that they gov’t tracked a whopping 18 people died and 35 people were injured by drawstrings. You know those little fabric “bags” with rice or popcorn or buckwheat hulls in them that you can toss in the microwave to warm up and use them as heating pads? Those are now considered a “medical device” and as such must be approved by the FDA. And, if you make them you must register your business as a medical equipment manufacturer. I closed my shop.
