Fast Food Chains Promoting Healthy Eating Habits

There is a website that talks about how a Burgerville chain was printing the calories and nutrition information of the person's order on their receipt for them.  The comments were that it was too late at that point because the consumers wouldn’t know the calorie and fat amounts until after they purchased the food.  One witty commenter wrote this as an idea:  So, you ordered the Spam, egg, sausage, and Spam sandwich with a side order of Spam and buried in three cheese topping, with an extra thick caramel shake blended with M&Ms... that will be 15 dollars 20 cents, 5730 calories, 7x the daily fat requirement, and 5 days' worth of sodium. Anything else? Heres a $10 off coupon for your next EKG test.

Some may like the idea of telling people what they purchase much better.  What do you think?  Is this a good healthy eating tip that should be implemented?  The technology is available, so should fast food employees verbally tell you how many calories and fat you are consuming when you order from them?
