Dairy Foods and Michael Wencel Sr Prepare Executives for Nutrition Label Changes
(PRWEB) July 10, 2014 -- First Lady Michelle Obama has made a valiant effort to bring better dietary education and nutritional visibility to the regular American family. Our First Lady is now finishing up a “90 Day Comment Period” during which Americans are invited to voice their opinions and concerns about the iconic Nutrition Facts label found on almost all food and beverage products. Following this comment period, the FDA will release new MANDATORY guidelines for our favorite brands to follow. The First Lady expresses her goals by stating, “Our guiding principle here is very simple: that you as a parent and a consumer should be able to walk into your local grocery store, pick up an item off the shelf, and be able to tell whether it’s good for your family.”
The Problem
While this change will likely cause an improvement in the health of many Americans, it will also incur great costs and stress on the food and beverage industry. Any product that doesn’t bear the new labeling will be considered illegal to have on shelves after FDA requirements have gone into effect. Old products will have to be removed from stores and disposed of. Aside from monetary losses, companies will experience stress and loss of time as executives and VPs need to divert energy from other projects to scramble together new designs and a plan for product deployment. Fortunately, there is a group with the experience and innovative knowledge necessary to overcome these issues while avoiding those highly detrimental costs.
