Rejected petition Ban the new law that puts calories on menus in restaurants

This law of putting calories onto restaurant menus would be very harmful for those recovering from eating disorders. Those who struggle from eating disorders often find it difficult to go restaurants anyway and this new law would hinder their experience

More details

Instead of putting the calories straight onto the menu they could be printed onto a separate sheet for people to ask not to be given upon entering the restaurant
