However, many believe a rule will be finalized this year. In a recent email to members, NAMA stated:  “It is now the belief of NAMA's Government Affairs Division that Calorie Disclosure Rules for Vending Machines will be released by the FDA -- along with the final regulations for Restaurant Menu Labeling -- by the end of 2014.”
