"In view of the growing number of health scandals linked to food over the last few years, we want to improve information for consumers on the foods they eat every day and on the origin of the foods. In a global economy, and at a time when trade is developing increasingly, this report calls for clearer labelling. This concerns the origin, but also the nutritional value of foods and whether they contain allergens, among other things. From now on, the energy value and the levels of fat, saturated fat, carbohydrates and protein will be clearly visible on packaging. I also voted for Amendment 61 on mandatory labelling of country or place of origin for meat and poultry. This represents a major step forward for consumers, as labelling has often lacked sufficient detail in the past, leaving gaps in consumers’ information. From now on, consumers will know exactly what is in their food and which country it has come from. This is a major improvement in the daily lives of European citizens."@en1
