10 Dec Why Every Restaurant Needs a Menu Nutrition Analysis in 2026
Why Menu Nutrition Analysis Matters More Than Ever
If you run a restaurant, meal prep service, or catering business, your menu is more than a list of dishes—it’s a compliance document. With increasing consumer demand for transparency and stricter regulations, restaurants are turning to professional menu nutrition analysis to stay compliant and competitive.
At United Food Labs, we help restaurants create accurate, FDA-compliant menu nutrition reports using ESHA Genesis and industry-standard lab testing.
⭐ Benefits of Professional Menu Nutrition Analysis

Today’s diners look for:
-
Calories

Allergen declarations
Menu transparency has been shown to increase order confidence and repeat customers.
3. Support Menu Engineering and Costing
