Whom of us, when shopping into a supermarket, does not stop carefully observing the labels on foodstuffs reporting nutritional facts ? This is a widespread practice, consequence of the growing attention paid to a healthy nourishing.

Today, a new project financed by EU - FLABEL , Food labelling to advance better education for life  - may tell us something more: which effect the labels have on the consumers, with the attempt of better understanding how it affects our choice in the purchase.

FLABEL project will be developed through three years, between  2008 and 2011, involving academic institutions, small and average enterprises, retailers and no-profit organizations.
