The Making Healthier Choices Act, 2014 doesn’t just focus on smoking…as we discussed yesterday with the potential ban on e-cigarettes.
The proposed bill, if passed would:
– Require calories for standard food and beverage items, including alcohol, to be posted on menus and menu boards in restaurants, convenience stores, grocery stores and other food service premises with 20 or more locations in Ontario;
– Require food service operators to post contextual information that would help to educate patrons about their daily caloric requirements;
– Authorize public health inspectors to enforce menu labelling requirements.
So basically – the legislation is targeting fast food restaurants, which we all know isn’t the best for us…so why not impose the legislation across the board?
