Every time a fast food chain rolls out a new item, the same thing usually happens: no nutrition label for days, sometimes weeks. This time it’s different. McDonald’s has already posted the calorie count for its Pumpkin & Creme Pie, right on its own website, before most people even got a chance to try it. … Read more
Taco Bell’s new Churro Ice Cream Taco has been on menus since September 1 — and as of this writing, there’s still no published nutrition label for it.
