Here's another idea. How bout letting Uncle Sam mail our daily menu to us once a month. That way restaurants won't need menus and we don't have to decide anything. Pull up to the drive thru and just hand them your voucher. The vouchers could also have times too, that would make things move more efficiently. We eat when and what they want us to eat. Everybody gets healthy and we won't have to go to the doctor as much. It's a win-win deal! Wouldn't that be the easiest thing to do?

 

Does KFC still sell those Chicken Littles? :sssh:

Here's an idea to SAVE the restaurants money...

 

TAKE THE BOARDS COMPLETELY DOWN! After all, prices can be looked up on their website BEFORE you go there to eat. It is a waste of space and money to put up $2.29 or 1200 calories on a board. People that care about their wallets or their waistlines can quit expecting a nanny state and simply look up the information online before they go.

 

:lol: This is not an issue, particularly since the prices change on these boards frequently. Next time, just add the caloric information.

I don't care one way or the other, I just think it's stupid. Like I said if you are eating at McDonalds you obviously don't care anyway.

Thanks, that's my point. :thumb:

So, I just use common sense if I'm on a diet at that point. I don't need the government to hold my hand, I know whats good for me and what's not.

Why am I not surprised with this response?

Ah, common sense. So refreshing. :thumb:

Because you know that I don't over-react to something so benign. :sssh:

 

I'm also recommending that we get rid of all road signs. They're too expensive to maintain and replace. We can all just use our GPS, just like we can use our internet before going to the restaurant to determine what is best for us to eat.

So, I just use common sense if I'm on a diet at that point. I don't need the government to hold my hand, I know whats good for me and what's not.

Common sense is predicated on accurate information. No input...no output.

Feel free to ignore the information, then. :lol: Those that want to use them can.

OUCH:p

Then make the ones that want the info pay for it... Have a coin operated machine and let them pay for the info if they want it.. That will cover the cost and won't be another burden on the tax payers....

:lol: Exactly how much do you think that this will cost? Again, these types of boards are redesigned and reconstructed all of the time. Sometimes they simply apply new numbering to a previously existing sign. This is NOT going to be a burden to the taxpayers.

 

Did anyone find that information on those KFC Chicken Littles?

From what I have read on this board a lot of people that go to McDonald's don't pay taxes.

 

If you don't want to pay a few pennies extra for your BigMac, you can choose to go somewhere else that doesn't post the calorie count. The mom a pop stores ought to make out like gang busters.

Care to clarify?

I guess my idea just makes too much sense... The fee will cover the cost and be paid for by the ones that want the info, NOT by the folks who don't want it...

Again...how much do you think it will end up costing? Let's see a cost breakdown and figure out just how much that this is going to raise the price of a Big Mac.
