Decision Point: Triple D: Your Response to the Backlash

Dawn took your advice and, following the release of the health study, Triple D held a press conference to announce its plans to adopt a policy of complete transparency regarding its menu options and post nutrition information on the menu boards in all of its food trucks. It pointed out that this was proactive on Triple D$\text{'}$s part, because the FDA doesn't require food trucks to post nutrition information.

The reaction to this press conference takes Triple D $($and you$)$ by surprise. Instead of applauding Triple D$\text{'}$s transparency, the media suggests that this action advances public relations more than public health, and instead of simply posting nutrition information on its menu boards, Triple D should be finding ways to make its products healthier.
