As consumers increasingly ask for healthier fare, the company that operates Olive Garden and Red Lobster restaurants said earlier this month that it will cut salt and calories across its menus by 10 percent over the next five years and 20 percent over the next decade.
Darden Restaurants, an Orlando, Fla.-based company with 1,900 restaurants that also include other chains, vowed to reformulate recipes, trim portion sizes and introduce healthier items in the coming years.
"Americans are increasingly conscious of making healthy choices for themselves and their families," Darden CEO Clarence Otis said.
