Now You can Measure If Your Favorite Restaurant is Making You Fat
Are you worried about putting on weight after eating out at your favorite restaurant? Cornell Food and Brand Lab researchers, have developed ’The Restaurant Scorecard’ for Healthier Dining that can be used by diners and restaurant managers alike to identify changes that can be made to promote healthy eating behaviors without undermining revenue.
Lead researcher Brian Wansink, director of the Food and Brand Lab at Cornell University and author of the new book, ’Slim by Design: Mindless Eating Solutions for Everyday Life’, said, "Restaurant managers want people to leave feeling good, and the scorecards could help identify potential improvements that would make diners leave feeling both satisfied and healthy."

The study findings will be presented at the 2015 Society of Nutrition Education and Behavior conference.
