We are grateful to Representative DeLauro for her commitment to providing consumers with more nutrition information in chain restaurants across the country," said Scott DeFife, the Association’s Executive Vice President of Policy and Government Affairs, who attended today's event. "Without Rep. DeLauro's leadership, we would not be here today."
The National Restaurant Association supported the nutrition disclosure provision, which was recently signed into law by President Obama. The agreement creates a national, uniform standard for chain restaurants with 20 or more locations that would provide customers with a wide range of nutrition information – mirroring the information available on packaged foods – at the point of purchase. Caloric information would be highlighted on menus, menu boards, and drive-thru boards.
