Fast food resteraunts would print on the reciept basic nutrition information: Calories, fat and sugar carbs. Modifications would also be listed.
No Mayo -50Cal,4gfat,3gcarb
Extra Pickels +10Cal,0gfat,2gcarb

<From my wife- on a diet>

Side Benefit: Might forstall the "I thought it was healthy and you made me fat" lawsuit.

       ah, yes, there it is (link). welcome to the HB though.

       Why were both of these ideas restricted to restaurants? Why not, at the bottom of your supermarket receipt, have printed the total number of calories you've just bought?
