Front-of-Package Labeling Development
The speaker introduces the concept of front-of-package labeling, which is currently under development. The purpose of this labeling is to provide consumers with clear indicators of whether a food product is healthy or unhealthy, based on its nutrient content. The intention is to implement labels that use visual cues, possibly a color-coding system, to quickly communicate the health status of various food items, including beverages and snacks available in the market. This initiative aims to help consumers make informed choices about the foods they purchase and consume.
