A bill to require chain restaurants in Indiana to make
nutritional information available to customers at each location has cleared the
Indiana House.
The bill failed to pass earlier this session, but its author, Democratic Rep.
Charlie Brown of Gary, called it for another vote last night. It passed
51-46 and now moves to the Senate.
The bill would require restaurants with 20 or more locations in Indiana to
provide details such as calories, fat and carbohydrates on each food item sold,
either on a posted menu or printed documents. Some opponents say the bill would
be a financial burden on restaurants and cost jobs.
