AZ HB2355

Chain restaurants with at least 10 locations nationwide and 5 in Arizona must display calories, saturated fat, trans fat, carbohydrates, and sodium content adjacent to each menu item on printed menus.

For menu boards or signs, restaurants may display only calorie information and provide the remaining nutritional details (fat, carbohydrates, sodium) to customers upon request.

Franchisors and corporate owners must analyze food items using department-approved methods and provide nutrient information to individual restaurants; listed values must be within 20% accuracy of items as prepared.

Department inspectors verify only that required information is displayed or available on request and are not required to verify accuracy, though the director may request documentation from corporate owners.

Individual restaurants failing to display information or provide it on request face civil penalties; franchisors or corporate owners face penalties for not providing satisfactory documentation or information to their restaurants.
