📣 Recently, The Food Reformulation Task Force has published a report on "The Accuracy of Nutrition Declarations on the Labels of Sugar-Sweetened Carbonated Beverages and Processed Cheeses Sampled in 2023". Nutrition declarations on food labels are used as an information source for monitoring food reformulation progress in Ireland. It is important that this information is accurate in order to truly reflect reformulation efforts. The aim of this study was to examine the conformance of declared nutrition information on sugar-sweetened carbonated beverages and processed cheese with European Commission guideline nutrition labelling tolerances. 👉 To read the full report, please see: https://ow.ly/Vg1X50UpTnK

Seven Enforcement Orders were served on food businesses in November. The Enforcement Orders were issued by Environmental Health Officers in the Health Service Executive. Some of the reasons for the Enforcement Orders in November include: active cockroach infestation; rodent activity and rodent droppings; premises being used as accommodation; lack of hand washing facilities in a room where raw food is handled; grease leaking from a pipe underneath a food preparation sink; containers of cooked meat, raw meats and sauces in a cold room uncovered and with no expiry dates.
