Maybe it's just me because I don't know how the US works, but when trying to find the official information for this, it seems like none of the news agencies I found via googling reference official information, they just reference their own news about things officials said. Eventually I found a reference to a fda document. Seemed painful to find though.

The USDA already keeps a publically available food database (https://ndb.nal.usda.gov/ndb/search/list) of most of this information. Its just that now restaurants need to make it more prominent at the time of order.

Yeah, I remember when US products like Dr Pepper first started showing up in NZ they would have a sticky label over the top of the nutrition info with a more compliant one.
