There may be a new style of dining menus available soon for consumers. They may seem implausible now, they probably would not be popular with many restaurateurs, and even dining clients may not like them. But they would appear to be necessary sooner or later.

Many modern menus now have information about stuff such as allergies and some also indicate the calorific values of various dining options. A rarer few more additionally show the fat, salt and sugar content of menu options, and the overall intent of these modern menus is to provide diners with as much dietary information as needed for consumers to decide on the best choices for their diets.
