When the topic is Food Safety, one of the most important topics is food labeling. We know that food labeling is essential for consumers to know what food they are consuming, as well as the best ways to store, prepare and eat it.

The truth is that the information on food labels helps consumers make informed choices and ensure they know what they are eating.

However, the ever-increasing range of information ends up leading to information overload, which can confuse and hinder choice. It is therefore important that consumers know how to read and analyze labels, in order to make healthy and informed choices.

Importance of Food Labeling

We know it’s mandatory, but why is it so important? One of several reasons is allergens. For example, foods that have egg, fish, peanuts, soy, milk, nuts, wheat or shrimp in their composition must make this information very clear to the customer, in large and visible letters.

A food that has any of these non-visible components can be very dangerous for an allergic consumer who is unaware of its presence, and can even lead to death.

Another reason that justifies the importance of food labeling is the fact that it is so important and increasingly known that what we eat has a direct impact on our health, so knowing exactly what we are going to buy and put on the table is the first step towards a healthier lifestyle.
