McDonald’s USA Adding Calorie Counts to Menu Boards, Innovating with Recommended Food Groups, Publishes Nutrition Progress Report

September 12, 2012 We are taking further steps in our journey toward helping customers and employees make informed nutrition choices by listing calorie information on restaurant and drive-thru menus nationwide.

In addition to menu board labeling, we published our first-ever nutrition progress report and revealed several upcoming menu innovations that will include recommended food groups from the United States Department of Agriculture’s 2010 Dietary Guidelines for Americans reflected in the messages supporting MyPlate. These are the latest in a series of actions to support our “Commitments to Offer Improved Nutrition Choices,” announced in July 2011.
