Examine product labels.

Examination should include the following concepts:

  • A label provides written information about a product.
  • Labeling information includes, but is not limited to, content, size/weight, care, warnings, expiration date, manufacturer, and date and location of production.
  • Product labeling must meet applicable legal requirements (e.g., Fair Packaging and Labeling Act).
  • Product labeling is used to protect the manufacturer as well as the consumer.
