What The Label DOESN'T Tell You About YOUR FOOD

Shockingly, there is no legal requirement to show how animals were raised. Almost all meat bought in supermarkets in the UK is factory farmed with the animals kept in appalling conditions.

Without compulsory method of production labelling, the packaging of factory farmed meat and dairy products will continue to mislead shoppers, undermining consumer choice and preventing higher-welfare farmers from differentiating their products.

@RichardAshwell

In Sweden there is a label in addition to organic, called Krav, meaning requirement. It applies mostly to dairy, but recently the shops have started offering prepared meats, like sausages, that are sold frozen in order to pass the requirement of no added E250 preservative.

The Krav label is strong on animal welfare and their transportation. It does not deal with the environmental impact of transporting the finished product, though. I find it annoying to see Krav-labeled wine from South America in Swedish shops, for instance.
