Rejected petition Reverse the decision to have cafés and restaurants calorie label their menus.

Reverse the decision to have cafés and restaurants etc label their menus with the calorie content of their options in and attempt to encourage “healthier” choices by customers.

More details

Calorie labelling is a significantly dangerous practice and contributes highly to disordered eating behaviours, calorie content doesn’t indicate how healthy something is, and should not be used as incentive for people to make “better” choices when they eat out.
This is not a safe practice, and should be reversed with immediate effect as it is liable to do more harm than good.
