Washington, August 20: A study has suggested that restaurants can expand and improve calorie listings on their websites and mobile apps so that their patron comes better prepared to order a healthier menu item.
Lead author Gary Bennett, an associate professor of psychology and neuroscience, global health at Duke University who studies obesity prevention, said that if consumers wait until they enter restaurants to make purchasing decisions, it might be too late.
He said that particularly for those who are watching their waistlines, it's important to make plans before stepping through the restaurant doors. That's why we were interested in understanding whether and how calorie information was available online.
Fda.
