Requires children's meals served in chain restaurants to meet certain nutritional standards.*

New Jersey's S 1939 requires chain restaurants (with 20+ locations) to meet specific nutritional standards for children's meals sold at a single price. The bill limits meals to 550 calories, 700mg sodium, 15g added sugar, and 10% saturated fat, while mandating at least 0.5 cups of fresh fruits or vegetables or a lean protein option. It also restricts beverages to water, milk, or 100% fruit/vegetable juice without added sweeteners. Restaurants must display the meal's nutritional content prominently on menus or signage. This bill directly affects chain restaurants operating in New Jersey and aims to improve childhood nutrition through concrete dietary requirements.
