Calories Count™ Beverage Vending Program

The Calories Count™ Beverage Vending Program offers consumers clear calorie information, encourages lower-calorie beverage choices and reminds them that calories count in all the choices they make. On the front of vending machines, Calories Count™ signs include one of the following messages: “Check Then Choose” or “Try A Low–Calorie Beverage.” The selection buttons also include calorie labels that show calorie counts per beverage container. The Calories Count™ Beverage Vending Program launched in municipal buildings in the cities of Chicago, San Antonio and Washington, D.C. in 2013, and will be made available to customers nationwide.
