NYC wants to control what you eat

New York City used to be known as the city where you can see anything, be anything, do anything, and EAT anything you want to.  Now, following on the heels of its health initiatives like counting calories on menus and banning trans fats, the city's health department aims to reduce the sodium content of food sold within its boroughs by 25% over the next 5 years.  According to their statitstics, the average American currently consumes twice the recommended daily intake of sodium.  Elevated sodium intake has been linked to hypertension, heart attacks, and strokes.
