Food Service & Quick-Serve Restaurant Testing Services

Consider us an extension of your team.

 

Your craft is built on a legacy of meticulous attention to detail. So is ours.  

Stakeholders in the Food Service and Restaurant industry must navigate through an array of regulations and considerations that are important for their consumers. Section 4205 of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act was signed into law on March 23, 2010, requiring nutrition labeling of "standard" menu items for chain restaurants with 20 or more locations and "similar" retail food establishments.  

In addition to labeling, food safety is equally as important in order to protect consumers. With the largest breadth and depth of analytical services, Eurofins, through our network of laboratories, provides unparalleled testing capabilities and is committed to partnering with food service establishments and restaurants on designing testing programs to protect their respective brands and consumers.

 

Let us help you find your solution

 

Our experts maintain up-to-date expertise in labeling compliance and food safety measures. 
From allergen testing to food safety and nutrition testing, we are your partner in navigating the regulations and protecting your customers as well as your brand.

The basic requirements for menu labeling compliance as mandated by the FDA are:

  • The number of calories in each standard menu item on a menu or menu board
    • The calorie disclosure must be “clearly associated with” and “adjacent to” the name of the standard menu item
  • A statement on the menu or menu board that puts the calorie information in the context of a recommended total daily caloric intake
  • Additional nutrition information for standard menu items in written form (“written nutrition information”), which must be made available to consumers upon request
  • A “prominent, clear, and conspicuous” statement on the menu or menu board regarding the availability of the written nutrition information
  • The number of calories (per item or per serving) adjacent to self-service food and food on display
    • Includes food sold at salad bars, buffet lines, cafeteria lines or similar self-service facilities, self-service beverages, and food on display that is visible to consumers
