nutrition labeling
Package dietary information
Nutrition labeling is the practice of displaying nutritional information on food packaging—calories, fat, protein, vitamins, and other contents.
Government regulations typically mandate what must appear and how: Check the nutrition labeling before you buy.
The term covers both the system itself and the physical labels it produces.
