Food chains won't post calories on menus

With just days to go before a deadline, a lot of the fast food places in New York City are refusing to list caloric content on their menus, according to the Associated Press.

The new regulation goes into effect Sunday but Burger King, McDonald's, Wendy's, KFC and Taco Bell haven't budged. They are hoping a lawsuit will get the new rules tossed.

I don't blame them, I would too. Kind of hard to sell that Double Whopper with Cheese when a customer sees that 990 calories beside it on the menu. That's one heck of a Whopper, huh?
