New York City made news when it passed a law to require restaurants with 15 or more outlets nationwide to display calories counts on menu boards, menus or food tags.

82 percent of New Yorkers surveyed said that seeing the caloric breakdown of their potential meals affected their choices.
So what I want to know is: If this goes into effect in your city or state, do you think seeing the caloric breakdown of your potential meals will affect your meal choices? Do you want to know how many calories are in your potential meals or when you go out for a nice dinner, is ignorance bliss? Sound off in the comments.
