The phrase refers to the act of acquiring, without cost, a digital document containing nutritional information pertaining to the menu items offered at Metro Diner restaurants. The document is typically in Portable Document Format (PDF) and details calorie counts, macronutrient breakdowns (fat, carbohydrates, protein), and potentially micronutrient information for each dish.
Access to this data is vital for individuals managing dietary restrictions, tracking caloric intake for weight management, or simply seeking to make informed choices about the food they consume when dining at Metro Diner. Historically, restaurants have not always readily provided such detailed nutritional information; however, increasing consumer demand and evolving regulations have driven a trend towards greater transparency in the food service industry.
