Food labels are informative labels attached to packaged food products, instant food Products, packaged herbs, spices & condiments that provide essential details about the product's contents, nutritional information, ingredients, allergens, and other relevant information. These labels are designed to help you make informed choices about the food products you purchase and consume.
