NYC fast food restaurants to post calorie counts on menu boards?

A rule instituted by the New York Restaurant organization that would require positive fast food establishments to list the calories each item has in bold letters next to the price of the item isn’t going to be followed by many NYC eateries. Burger King, McDonald’s and Wendy’s have said they won’t be posting calorie counts, as doing so will be confusing to citizens visiting the restaurant, as the menus will contain too much knowledge.

I find that fast food menu boards are already confusing, and I agree that adding the calorie count them will manufacture them increasingly mind-boggling than they already are. But at the same

instance, I think providing the calories alongside the price is a brilliant view. What do you think?
