Young generation has a passion for outdoor food, which is resulting in wider waists and lazy race.

Most of the restaurants are selling high calories food, that is impacting the lives of our youths, therefore this is the time to ask the restaurants to display "Calories Chart" of their food on their restaurants, that would create an awareness among-st our innocent and unaware youths, who need to cut out on their daily calories intakes before it is too late.

Equinox: Sadly, it doesn't work in reality. look at cans of fizzy drinks or Red bull. The information is clearly displayed, but we still drink them

While choices are open, it is the direction that is needed, someone has to play this role sooner or later. Food and diet related diseases are already reaching to the pandemic level, and the society at large has to play its due role, if remained unchecked,this is going to hurt every family in the future.

Yeah agree with you Britexpat. Any who watches what they eat are generally quite aware of what's in their food, good / bad. Anyone who eats pizza / burgers 3 / 4 times a week I can't imagine would be bothered about a sign up saying what was in their food.

Spot on about the nanny state though. Exactly what the UK / US has become. People suing McDonalds as they got fat eating their food

Deleerious: Whilst i agree wiyh you in essence, i do beleive that there has to a limit to state nannying. We are adults and should be allowed to make choices on our own. this type of information is readily available elsewhere, so we don't really need it on menus..

Oily, greasy and sugary food should essentially be kept in the check, and Municipality can do it.

Sadly anyone who's desperate for a pizza is unlikely to care about the calorific contents. It's the same in the UK when they published pictures of tarred lungs on cigarette packs, it made no difference. People don't care about the consequences sadly.
