THEY ARE NOT OBLIGED TO LIST ANYTHING, ANYWHERE. SAID AGAIN. FOOD FOR IMMEDIATE CONSUMPTION IS NOT MANDATED TO HAVE A NUTRITION LABEL OR AN INGREDIENTS LIST. PERIOD.
ONLY "PACKAGED" FOODS ARE. THAT MEANS CANNED, DRIED, BOTTLED FOODS. BAKED GOODS FOR LATER CONSUMPTION LIKE BREADS AND DESSERT GOODS. ICE CREAM SOLD FROM SUPERMARKET FREEZERS.
FRESH PRODUCE DOESN'T NEED SUCH LABELS. FRESHLY CUT MEATS DON'T NEED SUCH A LABEL. FISH DOESN'T NEED SUCH A LABEL. FOOD SOLD FOR IMMEDIATE CONSUMPTION IS RESTAURANT FOOD FROM ANY KIND OF RESTAURANT - FAST FOOD, SLOW FOOD, HOT FOOD, COLD FOOD - ANYTHING EXPECTED TO BE EATEN SOON AFTER DELIVERY. NO LABELS ON HOT PIZZA. NO LABELS ON BOWLS OF SOUP. NO LABELS ON THE BREAD BASKET IN RESTAURANTS. NO LABELS ON ICE CREAM CONES. NO LABELS ON THAT GRILLED CHEESE SANDWICH. OR THE FRIES WITH IT. NO LABEL ON THE TIRAMISU.
NO LABELS ON HOT BURGERS.
LABELS *ONLY* MANDATORY ON *PACKAGED* FOODS. THINK FOODS PREPARED AND PACKAGED IN A FACTORY SOMEWHERE. NOT COOKED AND SERVED ON PREMISES.
?
Maybe it would have been better to have waited and done a bit better research. But even so, the one you cited said it out loud and clear. No labels necessary for foods for immediate consumption.
Wonderful spinning. You should be in Washington.
And they are *not* legally required to do so, and I corrected the misstatement. Several times, apparently to no avail.
Right.
It was transparent, just irrelevant. An emotional appeal rather than the legalities and actual events. And "beef" isn't an "additive" in their fries. I frankly would have expected you to have understood the vocabulary you're trying to argue with by now.
Burger wars 2055Glitter Ninja No, you're a moron. That's the problem. And your imagination is as crippled as your logic. Nah. And your idea of a "whiny little complaint" means your reading skills...
Burger wars 2056Chris McGonnell Of course it is. Your "guess" I mean. I see you're even more moronic and ignorant than your dear, dear friend. For a...
Is this the "beef extractives" used for flavoring or tallow in the fry fat? If the extractives, I have no problem with not saying it because the chemistry issues are no different than the ones with wheat extractives.
If the tallow, I think they should have either posted it on the walls in the restaurants as a warning, or suggested to the world that they cook with beef in many products, so maybe it would be better to go eat at "Wacko Veggies 'R' Us" if that's a problem.
Burger wars 2059Why, sure. If you're going to stick with the labored attempts at being patronizing and clever, why not go whole hog? Oh, my. My, my, my...
THEY ARE NOT OBLIGATED TO *HAVE* AN INGREDIENTS SECTION. THEY ARE NOT OBLIGATED TO HAVE NUTRIENT LABELING. HOW CAN ONE OMIT INFORMATION FROM A NON-EXISTENT DOCUMENT? *EVERYTHING* IS OMITTED FROM A NON-EXISTENT DOCUMENT.
THEY'RE CLbuttIFIED AS RESTAURANTS BECAUSE THEY SERVE FOOD FOR IMMEDIATE CONSUMPTION - WHICH IS NEVER OBLIGATED TO HAVE NUTRIENT OR INGREDIENT LABELING. THEY NEITHER HAVE TO LIST WHAT'S IN THE FOOD, NOR WHAT'S NOT.
It really doesn't matter what "the way you read it" is. Only matters what the whole CFR says are the regulations at hand and how they're to be observed. The simple, plain, utter, absolute fact is that restaurants are not mandated to supply *any* nutritional information. Period.
It means they aren't required to supply nutritional information like packaged products. Chef Boyardee canned lasagna (if they make something like that) has to have an ingredients list. Olive garden don't have to provide *any* nutritional information for a plate of pasta.
Burger wars 2054Glitter Ninja What a perfectly silly thing to say. All it takes is a scale. Normal patty is 4 ounces - 4...
Burger wars 2060Nancy Young Beef. Bread. What's to be better? Ok. Not better, just more to you...
*Everything* can be omitted because nothing is directed to be included.
The "food label" is only mandatory for packaged foods. Not restaurant foods. It makes the very clear distinction that you seem to want to deny, or at least your harping on it seems to indicate that.
"Prepared foods" in the regulation are "packaged foods." Not foods for immediate consumption. Hostess Twinkies, not hot burgers. Why do you not get this from the list the regulation offers?
Why are you having such a difficult time grasping this very simple set of facts? Restaurants are not obligated to provide nutritional information. Period.
It hasn't mattered what citations I've offered. Doesn't even matter from the perspective of that British web site you cited where they said the same thing.
You still cling to what should be on their nutrition labels when they don't have any because nobody serving foods for immediate consumption has any. Nutrition labels are the panels that list the breakdown of macronutrients, vitamins and minerals on cans and jars, bread bags, etc.. No take-out food box or bag from a restaurant selling food for immediate consumption needs to have such labeling. And none that I've ever seen do.
Right.
Bye.
