Proposal

The goal of this proposal is to allow users and data consumers to determine whether restaurants have nutritional menus available. This is very useful for people with dietary restrictions, and there is currently little resources for this. Neither Yelp nor Google nor OpenStreetMap appears to have any infrastructure for tagging this.

Nutritional menus should be considered any menu which lists macronutrients on a per-dish basis. If the only macronutrient listed is calories/joules, this should be noted. A tagged value of yes will assume that it includes things like sodium, protein, carbohydrates, and fat.

Rationale

This allows people to find nutritional menus for the restaurants they visit, or at least figure out if they exist.

Verifiability

There are three approaches one can take to verifying this tagging, depending on how the restaurant is tagged.

Online Nutritional Menu

This is the easiest to verify, because all you need to do is follow the link associated with this feature. If the link is live, and it contains a nutritional menu, then it is verified.

Examples

name=McDonald's
amenity=fast_food
cuisine=burger
drive_through=yes
diet:nutritional_menu=yes
diet:nutritional_menu:url=https://www.mcdonalds.com/us/en-us/about-our-food/nutrition-calculator.html

name=Beach Hut Deli
amenity=restaurant
cuisine=sandwich
diet:nutritional_menu=calories
diet:nutritional_menu:url=no

name=Thai Paradise
amenity=restaurant
cuisine=Thai
diet:nutritional_menu=no

Tagging

Simple tagging

amenity=restaurant|fast_food
diet:nutritional_menu=yes|no|calories        (defaults to no)

Advanced tagging

amenity=restaurant|fast_food
diet:nutritional_menu=yes|no|calories        (defaults to no)
diet:nutritional_menu:url=no|<url>           (defaults to no)

Rendering

This should probably not be rendered except to the extent you can filter restaurants by its value
