Fast Food Chains that don't already will soon be listing calories besides each menu item. Take McDonald's, for example: Will knowing that your Double Quarter Pounder with Cheese contains 750 calories and a McFlurry with Rolo 700 calories or a Large Dr. Pepper 350 calories or a Large French Fries 500 calories cause you to change your order for a smaller size or even a different choice with less calories?

How much do you worry about calories when going to a junk food joint to pick up dinner?

In that vein, would you forego the large popcorn with butter at the movies if you knew it had about 1200 calories?

Will the Fed doing this for us with Fast Food Restaurants or otherwise somehow knowing calorie counts for junk food make America thinner in 5 years?
