The ________ is a federal statute passed in 1990 that requires food manufacturers and processors to provide nutrition information on many foods and prohibits them from making scientifically unsubstantiated health claims.

Respuesta :

Nutrition Labeling and Education Act
   This act requires nutrition labeling on food and standardizes terms such as serving size, "low fat", "light", and the such. It prevents things such as claiming "low calorie" cause the "calories per serving" is only half of the competitors, while specifying an absurdly low serving size that's also half the size the competitors use.
