Nutritional Value Labeling Ordinance
Explanation:
Nutritional Value Labeling Ordinance:
Nutritional value labeling is not mandatory in Germany and other EU countries unless a nutrition claim is made on the label or in advertising messages. The EU Nutritional Value Labeling Directive 90/496/EEC establishes rules for the separate labeling of the caloric and nutritional values of foods. Though not mandatory for all foods, it establishes certain conditions, which must be fulfilled if the industry wishes to provide information that either emphasize a particularly low caloric content or a particularly high nutritional value of a certain food.
