>>Does NY not realize the rest of the country is laughing at them?

Sadly, most don't. Still, many of us New Yorkers have been fed up with this nanny-state socialist mayor for a long time. He concentrates on idiotic minutia like this, while the city's infrastructure is falling apart. Seems that those who love him the most are the limo libs, most of whom, like him, didn't grow up here, yet insist on invading my city and running it into the ground.

I've lived in NYC my whole life, but not until this clown took office did I ever feel the desire to leave it; and for good.

I can't believe NYC customers don't realize that eating a Big Mac isn't a healthy food choice. Are NYC consumers so impressionable that they can be "guilt-tripped" into eating better? Does NY not realize the rest of the country is laughing at them?

i think it's a great thing, despite the nanny feel of it all. i like knowing what the healthy options are on the menu. and i've learned the hard way that what looks healthy (like a salad) can be many hundreds of calories because of all the other stuff they put in it to "enhance taste." i hope all restaurants begin doing this or are required to, just in the spirit of "full disclosure."
