Petition for the FDA to issue final guidance requiring covered establishments to include calories and additional nutrition labeling on menus on third-party platforms
The Center for Science in the Public Interest, the American Public Health Association, Consumer Federation of America, and Consumer Reports submit this petition requesting that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration issue final guidance for industry clarifying that FDA’s existing menu labeling regulations apply to menus from covered establishments on third-party platforms such as DoorDash, Grubhub, and Uber Eats. As a consequence of such a guidance, calories would appear on all online menus controlled by covered establishments, the way they currently do for versions of those same menus in stores and on those restaurants’/merchants’ websites, and all online menus would communicate that additional nutrition information, such as sodium and saturated fat, is available if requested by the customer.
