- Food Law -

The laws about food, food labelling and additives permitted in food vary from country to country. They are also frequently modified, added to or deleted. Doubtless there will be changes that will alter some of the statements made here about food law. Nevertheless, we feel that interested consumers should know about some of the more important current laws relating to food.

People who wish to keep up to date with changes in food legislation should, in Australia, contact their State Department of Health; in the U.S.A., the Food and Drug Administration; and in the U.K., the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food.
