Some of the main changes to the labelling rules :
• Clearer and harmonised presentation of allergens for prepacked foods (emphasis by font, style or background colour) in the list of ingredients.
• Mandatory allergen information for non-prepacked food, including in restaurants and cafes.
• Requirement of certain nutrition information for majority of prepacked processed foods.
• Mandatory origin information for fresh meat from pigs, sheep, goats and poultry.
• Same labelling requirements for online, distance-selling or buying in a shop.
• Clear indication of defrosted products.
