#Nestle wants India to consult on #foodlabelling rules amid debate on packaging warnings | Reuters
"Nearly 80% of products made by India’s more than $100 billion packaged food and beverages market could be regarded as high in fat, sugar and salt, according to industry estimates. Activists say companies should not be consulted in deciding on labelling. "Nestle's call for industry participation in India’s labelling rules is a clear attempt to weaken public health policy," said Dr. Arun Gupta, the convenor of Nutrition Advocacy in Public Interest, a national think tank on nutrition. "They have used warning labels in Europe since 2013 while their trade bodies fought them in India.""

@EUCommission Great to see this push for transparency extend to everyday food products. The same principle is reshaping the nutraceutical and supplement space too — EFSA's health claims framework has already rejected the majority of botanical health claims for lack of clinical substantiation, and the direction is unmistakable: claims need evidence, not just plausibility. #Transparency #EUCommission #Nutraceuticals #FoodLabelling #ClinicalEvidence

I knew before watching the following video that some brands of honey cut their product with corn syrup - because I reacted to them. I now buy expensive Manuka honey and so far have not reacted to any of the brands I have tried (3 brands so far).

Before I developed a corn allergy, when I had a migraine I used to drink coke for the caffeine. I have a migraine and my partner found some Mexican coke at the store which is prominently labelled as containing cane sugar. I hope it's legit, but according to this video - it might not be. I had some anyway. We'll see.

The EU Commission is sued for secrecy over a ditched food label plan.
Two food NGOs filed a case claiming that the European Commission refused to disclose reasonable information on the scheme.
The initiative to introduce mandatory front-of-packet labelling was part of the Commission's broader Farm to Fork Strategy and aimed to harmonise nutritional information provided to consumers, but was quietly dropped.
