Are you able to have a rational discussion without all the invective? I'm sensing a little hostility here.
I provided an alternative, based on my own experience, for how people can get nutritional information for restaurant food, short of government mandates. I do it every time I eat out. In fact, I'm fairly certain I wouldn't even use a restaurant's guide in lieu of my app. Unless the menu had a bar code.
In response, you questioned the reliability of the app, name-called, created a stupid hypothetical, all caps, bold, etc. A real meltdown. And all this after knowing nothing about the app.
Yes, you must be bored.
1. Your alternative is subpar and inefficient, you admitted that enough your self.
2. Your counter regarding new menus is well exposed as lacking knowledge of printing costs and the restaurant biz.
3. Therefore, minimal costs and customers benefit.
Your resolve regarding your dislike of government requiring business to do things in the face of #1 and #2 resulted in my observation which included the warning labels on cigs hypothetical.
Then you attempted to bog the discussion down in red herring/dodge/deflection bull shit at every level.
I type in all caps for effect, just as i do with underlines, bold, text size and italics. It's been my pattern since i have been here.
You also know i delight in calling BS with i see it.... and you have once again delighted me greatly. Thanks PS: I have had the app on my phone for quite some time. I used it for a little bit a couple of years ago and forgot that i had it until you brought it up. 2500+ milligrams of sodium in a serving or a dish is obscene. I have no problem with the federal government requiring restaurants chains to put this on their menus. There are many other things the government needs to get the hell out of I am sure. but this isn't one of them.
