Carper pushes for healthy eating info
Senator Carper wants to help you make healthy choices when you go out to eat.

Carper introduced the Labeling Education and Nutrition, or LEAN Act, a bill that
would require restaurants and grocery stores that serve prepared foods at 20 or more
locations to provide nutritional information for each menu item.
Carper says it's important to give people the information they need to fight a
growing epidemic across the country and here at home.
Carper says uniform rules are needed, calling healthy nutrition and obesity national
concerns that cry for national attention.
