Closed Recommend carbohydrates be included on any front of pack nutrition labels

Closed on

We want carbohydrates to be added to the current traffic light info on the front of food. Currently this information is often only in tiny writing on the back of products, mixed in with other information.

People with type 1 diabetes need to know what carbs are in a product so they know how much insulin they need. This info is often only on the back mixed in with lots of other information. However this should be displayed on the front clearly, alongside other important nutritional information.
