Coke, Pepsi, more to post calories on soda vending machines
Oct 15th 2012, 11:50

Now that Coca-Cola Co., PepsiCo Inc. and other sugary soda producers are planning to list health information on vending machines, calorie counts aren't just for the likes of McDonald's and fast food joints.

In full view of consumers, the machines will have a "Calories Count" display alongside messages such as "Check Then Choose" and "Try a Low-Calorie Beverage," according to the American Beverage Assn. trade group.

Labels listing the number of calories per container will be affixed to selection buttons. More lower-calorie drinks will be offered in the machines, which will initially be available in government buildings in Chicago and San Antonio.
