MomsRising is asking moms to think about kids menu labeling

Share On Social!

Since 2010 federal requirements around menu labeling have been in process, but after the new regulations all restaurants, convenience stores, supermarkets, movie theaters and similar food establishments will now be required to list nutritional information like calories, fat, sugar, and sodium for parents and families.

However, implementing this change has been a slow process, and the date for all food establishments to be updated has been pushed back.

Many establishments like Starbucks, Panera and others have already implemented the changes, but Momsrising wants to encourage parents to take action and encourage the FDA to finalize the guidelines and implement these changes.

According to Momsrising parents need to know this information as many families are eating out more than eating at home for convenience.
