"I welcome the adoption of the new rules on food labelling, thanks to the new regulation on the subject, which received my vote. This legislation greatly improves the information provided to consumers when they are deciding which food to buy. From now on, a standardised ‘nutritional declaration’ will help them to recognise the respective qualities of the various products on sale in shops. Manufacturers will have to display the energy value and the quantities of six nutrients (fat, saturates, carbohydrates, protein, sugars and salt). This information will have to be written in a minimum font size and appear in the same field of vision to ensure that it is legible. It has been left up to manufacturers, however, to decide where to display it. The mandatory indication of origin for beef has now been extended to swine, sheep, goat and poultry meat. The Commission has been tasked with proposing a regulation aimed at extending this indication of origin to meat used an ingredient when it makes up 50% of the end product."@en1
