California has taken a bold step by being the first state to enact a uniform food labeling system, aiming to reduce confusion for consumers and minimize food waste.
With more than 50 different labeling phrases causing confusion among consumers, this law introduces 'best if used by' and 'use by' as clear indicators of food freshness and safety.
Implementing a standardized label system will not only clarify when foods are at their best but will also combat the alarming issue of food waste that costs Californians billions annually.
The enactment of AB 660 reflects a growing recognition of the intersection between food labeling, waste reduction, and environmental responsibility, showcasing a model for others to adopt.
