Menu Labeling Is In Effect
As of May 7th 2018, all forms of menus (electronic and printed versions) are required to have calorie counts disclosed next to each menu item, along with providing additional nutrition information to the Guest, upon request. Nutrition Made Simple is here to offer Simple Solutions for what could be a daunting task. Our proven multi check system focuses on the details. Starting with a thorough review of all menus, next we calculate values based up regulatory code, followed by menu proofing for accuracy. Finally, we will create an additional information document that meets regulatory requirements.
