Recently the places I've lived have all had calorie counts on menus. It's very helpful. That way, when presented with a choice between a 400 calorie meal for $10 and a 1200 calorie meal for $10, I know which one will give me more calorie for my buck. Yes, some of us use it to get more calories, not less. It's just far too helpful to know exactly how many calories you're getting. It's not just for people dieting or wanting to eat less. |

The Affordable Care Act required displaying calorie counts across the entire United States. http://www.fda.gov/food/labelingnutrition/ucm217762.htm
Wasn't a coincidence you saw those counts in all the recent places you've lived (assuming you live in the US).
