FoodCALC shows restaurants how to monetize nutritional info

June 28, 2010

Nutrition analysis provider FoodCALC and The Kentucky Restaurant Association are offering a webinar to help restaurant operators market the results of nutrition analysis for their menu items. The free webinar is scheduled for June 30 at 11-12 p.m. Pacific time (2-3 p.m. Eastern time).

FoodCALC director of nutrition Alyson Mar, R.D., will demonstrate how to monetize a menu's nutrition information. Restaurants trying to comply with a menu labeling law are often at a loss about how to best present this information to their diners. As industry trends show diners are requesting nutrition information on restaurant menu items, it is imperative for restaurant operators to learn how nutrition information is the ultimate marketing tool, and can broaden their diner audience.

The live webinar will cover two important topics:

• Learn how to calculate your nutrition facts using the nutrition analysis tool MenuCalc, the National Restaurant Association's endorsed nutrition analysis solution.
• How the national menu labeling law affects the 250,000-plus dining establishments and the impact on operations.
