Abstract: The proposed rule, if finalized, would add § 101.6 (21 CFR 101.6) requiring the food industry to disclose certain nutrition information as an informational label on the principal display panel of most foods bearing a Nutrition Facts label. The informational label would provide consumers with interpretive information on the front of food packages for three nutrients to limit that would allow consumers to compare the levels of these three important nutrients among foods. The informational label would give consumers additional context on the front of most food packages about certain nutrients that appear on the Nutrition Facts label.
