Food Safety and Labeling Regulations

Food Safety and Labeling Regulations are laws that ensure the food we eat is safe and accurately represented. These regulations cover how food is processed, packaged, and labeled, requiring that labels include important information like ingredients, nutritional value, and potential allergens. They help prevent foodborne illnesses and protect consumers from misleading claims. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) oversees these rules, ensuring that food products meet safety standards and that consumers can make informed choices based on clear and truthful labeling. These regulations help maintain public health and trust in the food supply.
