Adam was challenging me about whether McD's was honest enough to include
nutrition info. Of course they are! They're your friend (see the latest
Slate for a fine piece on McD's brand-mgmt crisis).

Actually, and I could very well be wrong because I learned this years ago,
but it's the law that they have to provide that information. You can go to
any drive-thru window and ask for a nutritional chart (I've done it at Burger
King) and I believe they have to provide you with one. It's the same thing
in the supermarket, they have to include that information on packaging. And
like I said, I could be wrong, but that's what I learned years ago in one of
my health classes.
