Extreme food that looks at quantity is starting to get old in my book. There are other avenues of extremity in food that are more interesting to me.
However, what's interesting here is that a warning label was actually recommended for this. That's actually kind of funny. Like it needs a label.  |
Weird because the FDA rules for labeling are very clear as to when you require a label on foods with nutritional information. Recently the city of NY decided that food companies with more and 15 branches and was upheld by the Second Circuit Court of Appeals.

Food Law Blog (US): NYC Menu Calorie Labeling Requirement Upheld
New York City requires all menu boards and menus in chain restaurants with 15 or more establishments nationally to bear calorie content information for each menu item. The New York State Restaurant Association challenged this regulations, but the Second Circuit Court of Appeals has rejected the challenge both on federal preemption and First Amendment grounds.
The appellate court held that the Nutrition Labeling and Education Act of 1990 (NLEA), “does not regulate nutrition information labeling on restaurant food, and states and localities are free to adopt their own rules. The NLEA, however, does generally regulate nutrition content claims on restaurant foods, and states and localities may only adopt rules that are identical to those provided in the NLEA.”
