Yum Brands, the parent company of Taco Bell, KFC and Pizza Hut, has announced plans to begin posting product calorie information on the indoor menu boards nationwide at company-owned restaurants.
This comes at a time when more states and municipalities are considering requirements for restaurant chains to post consumer nutritional information.
About 4,000 of Yum's company-owned stores will begin to post calories on menu boards. All 20,000 of the company's stores will do so by January 1, 2011.
