FACTSON THE
NUTRI-SCORE
LABEL SYSTEM

Nutriscore Fakty Koszyk Jedzenie

The institutions of the European Union are working towards implementation of the joint nutritional value labeling system on the front of pack (FOPNL). One of the solutions discussed is implementation of the Nutri-Score systemwhich is currently used in several EU countries. We should pay attention to the fact that attempts to implement it officially are very often accompanied by objections from agricultural producers and processors, because its assumptions mostly depreciate natural, ecological, regional or traditional products, as well as the products which content must not be changed in view of valid regulations.

Such products are for example:. juices, oils and olives, honeys, ripening cheeses and fish productsthat are often popularized within EU programs regarding regional, local, ecological or geographical-origin-indicated agricultural products.

Nutri-Score is contradicted by multiple nutrition specialists and is against the current EU policy focused on drawing customers back to healthy diet based on traditional, basic products coming from local crops or farming. Also, traditional products entirely based on raw materials guarantee high quality and diversity of EU production, with purpose to maintain cultural and cuisine heritage in EU countries, as it could become inevitably lost, if Nutri-Score is implemented.
