ichoose 600

    Since I've returned home I've been hearing a lot of advertising for NY's new ichoose 600 campaign.  There are billboards, posters, and radio ads everywhere across the capital region.  The ads instruct you that by looking for the calorie postings at fast food restaurants and choosing meals that are less than 600 calories you will be able to control your weight and have more energy.  I like that NY has finally started to mandate that fast food restaurant post the calories right next to the menu item, but I still believe it is in the best interest of NY families to try and dine at healthier restaurants, ones that make their foods from scratch and where every other item on the menu isn't fried or heavily processed.  But, I guess if you must eat out at an Arby's, Burger King, or McDonalds it is good to know exactly how many calories you are going to consume before ordering.  The link for the campaign is http://www.health.ny.gov/prevention/obesity/ichoose600/ and more information can be found on their Facebook page if you search ichoose 600.  Let me know what your opinions on this new campaign are and what you think about the calorie listings at fast food restaurants.
