The purpose of this project is to systematically review and synthesize empirical research regarding why consumers consider the origin of the food important, how and why it influences consumers' choices, or how and why consumers do or do not understand, interpret and trust information on the origin of food. The specific objectives were expressed in three research questions: 1. Does the origin of a food influence purchase decisions and consumption, and if so, how? 2. Why do consumers find it important to know the origin of the foods they purchase or consume? 3. How do consumers understand and interpret information on the origin of food?

This paper uses the recently initiated United States - Certain Country of Origin Labeling Requirements (US- Meat COOL) dispute to examine the nature of the relationship between consumer information labeling regulatory measures and the applicable WTO provisions disciplining domestic regulation. The US measure in question mandates that retailers provide consumers with information on the national origin of their food as a means of facilitating consumer choice. The US- Meat COOL case is salient to the WTO legal regime because it presents an opportunity to establish a coherent legal jurisprudence relating to measures implemented on consumer information grounds (as separate from, but closely related to, labeling measures implemented on health or environmental grounds). The legal analysis revealed that WTO law does not categorically prohibit genuinely motivated consumer information labeling measures with disparate trade effects. The treatment of measures, which are motivated by both consumer and producer interests, however, remains unclear. Further, given that many of the relevant legal provisions are largely untested, the legal outcome for all consumer choice measures is far from certain, and are equally likely to produce a finding of non-compliance with WTO obligations. In light of this uncertainty, the case study identifies several issues critical to whether the US COOL regulation and, by extension, other consumer information labeling policies are judged compliant with key WTO disciplines. In addition, the paper compares the WTO legality of the US COOL regulation under the relevant provisions with hypothetical results based on an economic efficiency criterion. This analysis reveals that under several likely legal tests net welfare-enhancing labeling regimes risk being deemed in violation of WTO law. The author argues that prohibiting efficient de facto discriminatory consumer information measures runs contrary to the theoretical underpinnings of the treaty text, and that the dispute settlement bodies should, at a minimum, seek to employ legal tests that ensure that efficient consumer information labeling measures are deemed compliant with WTO law. Finally, this paper also explores issues specific to the subset of consumer choice measures, referred to as mandatory marks of origin regulations. It includes a discussion of the historical developments that led to the inclusion of a provision addressing such measures in the original GATT structure (GATT Article IX), the interaction of this Article with other applicable provisions, and the fundamental challenge of applying national treatment obligations to measures intended to facilitate differentiation of products on the basis of national origin.

During the past decade, tremendous growth has occurred in the use of nutrition symbols and rating systems designed to summarize key nutritional aspects and characteristics of food products. These symbols and the systems that underlie them have become known as front-of-package (FOP) nutrition rating systems and symbols, even though the symbols themselves can be found anywhere on the front of a food package or on a retail shelf tag. Though not regulated and inconsistent in format, content, and criteria, FOP systems and symbols have the potential to provide useful guidance to consumers as well as maximize effectiveness. As a result, Congress directed the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to undertake a study with the Institute of Medicine (IOM) to examine and provide recommendations regarding FOP nutrition rating systems and symbols. The study was completed in two phases. Phase I focused primarily on the nutrition criteria underlying FOP systems. Phase II builds on the results of Phase I while focusing on aspects related to consumer understanding and behavior related to the development of a standardized FOP system. Front-of-Package Nutrition Rating Systems and Symbols focuses on Phase II of the study. The report addresses the potential benefits of a single, standardized front-label food guidance system regulated by the Food and Drug Administration, assesses which icons are most effective with consumer audiences, and considers the systems/icons that best promote health and how to maximize their use.

Consumers increasingly seek information on food labels to help them make healthy food choices, and they rely on federal agencies to ensure that such information is truthful. Food companies may use health- and/or nutrient-related claims on food labels to appeal to consumers, distinguish their products from their competitors', and otherwise increase their sales. However, when those claims are false or misleading, consumers' efforts to select healthy food may be undermined. This book provides an overview of FDA protocols to reassess its approach in detecting and protecting consumers from false or misleading claims on food labelling.

Abstract: The issues raised by the Food and Drug Administration, USDA, and the FTC's Bureau of Consumer Protection in reaching joint decisions regarding food labeling are discussed. While no definite enforcement plans were decided upon, it was agreed that all ingredients must be declared on the labels of standized foods. The agencies suggest further study before ruling on the necessity of requiring such labels on foods sold to restaurants. In addition the quantitative listing of ingredients is encouraged on products. Policies permitting the grouping of products instead of separate listings will be restricted. A simplified format of the label itself is recommended to improve the communication of nutrition information to the consumer. Including information (such as potassium, sugar, fiber and cholesterol content) with the sodium content of a product is also recommended.

Increasingly, consumers desire information about the health, safety, environmental and socioeconomic characteristics of food products. These traits often cannot be detected by sight, smell or taste. Therefore, consumers must use food labels to select products that meet their needs and preferences. The growing consumer and industry interest in food labels presents challenges for governments, which must ensure that the product information is accurate, truthful and not misleading to consumers. Governments must decide whether provision of information should be mandatory or voluntary. With the increase in global trade in food, there is a need to harmonize food labels so that product information is understood and relevant to foreign markets.Innovations in food labelling provides information about the principles and requirements of food labelling and reviews the latest trends in this important area. Following an introduction on the evolution of food labelling, further chapters cover the Codex Alimentarius and food labelling, international trade agreements, nutrition labelling, allergies and food labels and environmental and social labels, among other topics.An essential reference for food regulatory agencies, food law experts and professionals in the food industry responsible for labelling as well as consumer and environmental associations with an interest in labelling. Provides important information about the principles and requirements of food labelling and reviews the trends in this area Documents label evolution and considers standards and legal issues, as well as protection of the environment and sustainable food production Features labels for a variety of different markets, including organic foods, and addresses social issues such as association of food quality with location
