KFC will be adding Grilled Chicken to the menu in 2009. A KFC press release reports that the Kentucky Grilled Chicken will be marinated and seasoned with a savory blend of secret herbs and spices and then grilled to juicy perfection - with between 60 to 180 calories and 3 to 9 grams of fat per piece. Original RecipeŽ chicken has between 130 to 360 calories and 8 to 24 grams of fat. Kentucky Grilled Chicken prices will be on par with KFC's fried menu items.

Oatmeal seems to be getting popular. Starbucks added Perfect Oatmeal last fall. Now, Jamba Juice is adding oatmeal (at about 300 calories) on the menu this month.

Baskin-Robbins is launching a more healthful ice cream called BRight Choices (indicated with a pink star decal). It's a line that includes reduced fat/no- sugar-added ice cream (with 25% less fat), dairy-free sorbet, and fat-free frozen yogurt.

Pizza Hut has introduced The Natural, a pizza made with all natural ingredients. The tomato sauce is made with all-natural tomatoes (and no high fructose corn syrup), all-natural roasted red peppers, all- natural pepperoni, and all-natural Italian sausage.

Last month, Philadelphia passed an ordinance which requires restaurant chains (and coffee shops, ice cream parlors, and convenience stores) with 15 or more stores to inform their customers about calories, saturated fat, trans fat, carbohydrates and sodium. The law takes effect January 1, 2010.

King County in Washington State has just started posting calories, saturated fat, sodium and carbohydrates on menu boards according to a similar law passed earlier.

And it looks like Massachusetts might be the next full state (after California) to pass - if the measure gets approved by the Public Health Council.
