NYC Health Dept. Ad Campaign Supporting Menu Labeling

One of the arguments we heard over the last two years in our drive to get calories onto menu boards, is that the menu boards won't make a difference if people don't even know their daily calorie requirements.

The New York Health Department launched an educational campaign today to make sure people know what those requirements are and how fast food meals fit in. The ad campaign, which is simple and straight forward, runs through January. This is definitely something California's Health Department should do.
