Sorry, Dunkin' Donuts: City's Calorie Counters Win Again
A panel of appellate judges has rejected the New York Restaurant Association's latest motion to delay enforcement of the city's new calorie posting rule.
“With today's decision, McDonald's, Dunkin' Donuts, and the other big chains that haven't yet listed calories as required by the Health Code have run out of stalling tactics," Health Commissioner Thomas Freiden said in a statement.
Yet, the eatery lobby's case against the rule on First Amendment grounds soldiers on. The next court date is slated for June.

Great post! It’s amazing how hard restaurant chains are fighting to hide their nutrition information? I wanted to share a new service my company just launched called ‘Wellternatives’ that lets people find nutrition info for thousands of chain restaurants for free – on the web or right from their cell phone. It also makes recommendations for a healthier alternative, hence the name... Wellternatives. If restaurants aren’t going to post their nutrition info, we figured we’d do what we could to give people instant access to the info from anywhere. Would love to hear what you think of it! Larisa
