From Fox News:
Tucked deep in the Affordable Care Act is language requiring all restaurants with at least 20 locations to list nutritional information alongside each and every item on their menu.
That edict is now creating headaches for small business owners across the country, particularly pizza chains.
Take Domino's. There are 34 million different pizza combinations available at the chain, when all crusts and cheeses and toppings are factored in.
Now imagine walking into a Domino's and navigating a menu board with 34 million different options on it.
Executives say figuring out the small print will be a big burden.
"Our company, like many pizza enterprises, is individual small business franchisees, so these are people that own three or four, or one or two Domino's pizza stores," said Domino's spokeswoman Lynn Liddle. "To have to redo the menu boards every time something changes on a calorie count would cost them several thousand dollars."
Liddle said the FDA has suggested offering a calorie range for different pies, instead of listing each and every possibility -- but she said that isn't helpful, since 90 percent of their business comes in over the phone or online. And none of those people ever set foot in the store, where the menu board would be.
Domino's has posted some nutritional information online for 13 years, and would like that to satisfy the FDA.
Some supporters of the Affordable Care Act are starting to agree.
"What the FDA did, I think, was really an overreach," Rep. Loretta Sanchez, D-Calif., told Fox News. http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2014/02/25/obamacare-menu-headache/
Nevadans have good old Harry Reid to blame for ObamaCare but we also have Felony Thief Dina Titus to thank for ObamaCare as she voted for it before she was booted out of office for two years.
Hopefully, there will be a decent challenger to the Felony Thief Titus as she is a very despicable human being. She says she is for Veterans buts votes against them. She is a thief as she has stolen thousands of dollars from taxpayers for being a horrible teacher, just like she is a horrible human being and politician.
So, the train wreck continues, thanks to Reid, Pelosi, Obama And Felony Thief Dina Titus.
