摘 要：
Food labeling information is divided into mandatory labeling information and recommended labeling information, which offer an important basis for consumers to choose food and management departments to supervise food. This paper analyzes the differences of food labeling regulations, especially the food labeling specifications between China and the Codex Alimentarius Commission(CAC), the European Union(EU), the USA, Australia and New Zealand. It is concluded that the range of pre-packaged foods in China is relatively small, and the labeling items such as the allergens, edible method and the production batch number are recommendatory. The labeling of ingredients presented in the nanometers is mandatory in the EU. Besides, the expressions of the shelf life, country of origin or place of provenance, irradiated food and GM food labeling are slightly different among various countries. The study provides constructive suggestions on improving the food labeling regulations and related management regulations in China.
