CAP’N and DOCK LABELING Generations ago, most foods were sold in bulk and shop pers could see and perhaps sample many foods before making purchases. That sys tem undoubtedly bad Ms ad vantages, but it also exposed foods to dust and handling, allowed them to deteriorate and made distribution com plicated. The advent of packaging provided sanitary protection for food and brought new convenience and variety to shoppers. Today's homemak er may choose from over 8,000 products every time she enters a super market. This enormous selection should not cause confusion. In the great array of a super market, the key to being an informed consumer is easy to discover because ITS ON THE LABEL! The all - important label serves as the “window” of the can. The kind of food that is in the can is revealed by the label with its descrip tions, pictures and other valu able information. Food buy ing is easier and thriftier for the shopper who makes label reading a habit and becomes familiar with the information on canned foods labels. It is no accident that cer tain basic information ap pears on every canned foods label. The Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act and the Fair Packaging and Lab eling Act specify a list of facts that labels include be fore the product may be dis tributed for interstate com merce. These facts have been determined through joint study by the government and the National Canners Asso ciation on behalf of the can ning industry. This trade as sociation, reflecting the atti tudes of its hundreds of mem bers, aims to give consumers products of dependable qual h AREAS THE CRATES WERE I, ] LABELED‘TANK* TO Sa.fi 1 Deceive spies' - =vp t ity and to make it as easy as possible for them to get what they want Naturally, labels are changed to aid consum ers. Years ago the label gave little more than the j name of the product and sev eral of its virtues. Today’s label contains a j wealth of information for the, homemaker who needs to I know—what’s on the label! j Behind the information oni a canned foods label lies aj long history of research. There is a good reason for every one of the things it tells you. The label provides nine basic facts which will help the consumer shop wise ly for canned foods: 1. The product name. 2. The variety, styles and packing medium in conjunc tion with the product name. 3. The net quantity of the contents of the container starting with aU ounces for weights of 1 to 4 pounds and volumes of 1 pint to 1 gal lon. 4. The name, address and zip code of the manufacturer, packer and distributor. 5. A listing of dietary properties if significant. 8. A statement on any ar tificial color, flavor or pre servative added. 7. If the quality of a pro duct falls below standards set by the FDA, the label must say so. A All information must be in English. 8. A list of ingredients, unless a standard of identify dor the product has been set by the government These are the minimum la bel requirements that every canner must meet Because canned foods packers want to give consumers as much help as they can, most of them ot ter additional descriptive labeling.
