Require restaurants to include carbohydrate information on menus

Closed 876 signatures

What the petition asks

We want it to be made a requirement that all menus at restaurants include carbohydrate content for every meal. This would help people with type 1 diabetes, who need to monitor their carbohydrate consumption.
For those with diabetes, knowing the carbohydrate content of a meal is vital. This simple step would empower customers to make informed choices for their health. It should help promote health-consciousness and inclusivity.
