Yesterday, the first phase of a new California law went into effect, which requires fast food restaurants (chains with 20 or more locations) to disclose the nutritional information of their products. Thanks to Senate Bill 1420, spearheaded by Alex Padilla (D-Pacoima), restaurants such as Applebee’s and Taco Bell must now provide brochures containing nutritional information. This law becomes much more stringent in 2011, when these same restaurants will have to list basic nutritional data on their actual menus and menu boards. You can read the full details here.
