McDonald’s Corp., the world’s biggest restaurant chain, will begin posting calorie information on menu boards at its U.S. stores next week as it works to stem criticism that its food causes obesity.

The chain also will test healthier items, such as egg-white breakfast sandwiches, 350-calorie sweet chili chicken wraps and more produce side items, to add to its menu in 2013, Oak Brook, Illinois-based McDonald’s said today in a statement. Calorie counts will be listed on menus inside restaurants and at drive-through windows, the company said.
