Question

In which of the following circumstances does a product that was previously exempt from bearing a nutrition facts label lose this exemption?

A. If the package design changes
B. If a nutrition claim is made
C. If the food is now given free to consumers or donated
D. If the product provides no significant nutritional benefits

Answer 1

A product loses its exemption from requiring a nutrition facts label if a nutrition claim is made about it.

Step-by-step explanation:

A product that was previously exempt from bearing a nutrition facts label loses this exemption if a nutrition claim is made about the product. This is because once a claim is made regarding the nutritional value or health benefits of a food item, it is mandatory under law to provide consumers with detailed nutritional information to substantiate that claim. Changes in package design, giveaways, or the nutritional value of the product itself (unless a claim is made) do not require the addition of a nutrition facts label.
