(Leah Barkoukis, Townhall) – If you thought the war on sugary drinks in New York City was bad enough, the Big Apple will now be cracking down on another apparent evil: salt.
After getting the green light from an appeals court this week, the city will start enforcing that chain restaurants use icons on their menus to warn customers if foods are salty.
The good news for freedom-lovers is that the appeals court’s ruling isn’t necessarily the final word on whether the regulation will stand.
The Associated Press reports:
The novel rule took effect in December, and some eateries already have added the requisite salt-shaker-like icons to menu items that contain more salt than doctors recommend ingesting in an entire day.
