Yes Judy R, it’s never bad to have information. After all, a muffin is not a muffin all the time. Some are triple the calories as others. Depends how they are made.
And Colagirl, I believe smaller and family-owned restaurants are exempt. Although here in San Francisco, where most small independent restaurants buy locally and fresh, they voluntarily provide full disclosure. It’s a selling point to say you’re serving free range, organic great food that is low calorie.
Again, the information will be there. If you aren’t interested, don’t read it or ignore it. But I have to say, I’m pretty educated and very up on nutrition, but I still find myself occasionally really surprised by the nutritional content of something when I read the information.
