自今年7月1日起,童鞋们去超市购物的时候可需要多留意啦!因为澳洲政府又出台并实施了关于食品标签的全新规定,赶快来一起涨涨姿势吧!
根据澳洲政府全新的标签制度,食品共被分为4大类:
- Grown in Australia
- Produced in Australia
- Made in Australia
- Packed in Australia
那么对于这4大类食品,它们之间有何区别?而到底哪个才是24K纯澳洲制造呢?我们下面来分别了解一下!
Grown in Australia
先来看看英文原文是怎么说的 —— “This is a claim about where the ingredients come from, and where processing has occurred. The label is mainly used for fresh food, such as fruit, vegetables and meat. Food can carry this mark only if it contains exclusively Australian ingredients.”
也就是说,带有这个标签的食品,就表明其原料是100%产自澳洲的,而且加工程序也全部都在澳洲完成,是最纯正的澳洲制造食品。通常情况下,童鞋们可以在一些新鲜蔬果和肉类的包装上找到这样的标签。
Produced in Australia
“This is a claim about where the ingredients come from and where processing has occurred. The label is often used for processed foods. For example almond milk is not entirely made of products that grow, but may contain ingredients such as water, or other products may include additives. Food can carry this mark only if it contains exclusively Australian ingredients.”
虽然用词不同,但这个标签的含义和Grown in Australia其实是一样的,只不过通常用于加工食品,这些食品的原料源自澳洲,例如奶制品。
Made in Australia
“This is a claim about the manufacturing process involved in making the food. This can include food with no ingredients from Australia. It refers to a food that underwent its last substantial transformation in Australia, for example chopping up imported apples and combining it with other ingredients to make an apple pie. A bar chart will indicate the percentage of ingredients that have come from Australia.”
如果产品带有这个标签,即表明该产品的加工工序是在澳洲完成的,也就是说产品的原料可能是进口的,并不是纯正的“澳洲制造”。打个比方,以进口苹果为原料,在澳洲加工而成的苹果派就会被贴上这个标签。
Packed in Australia
“This is a claim for foods that contain ingredients from multiple countries and cannot claim to have been grown, produced or made in Australia or any other country. The label will only feature a bar chart that shows the percentage of Australian ingredients.”
最后这个标签就很好理解啦,顾名思义,它指的就是在澳洲打包装袋的食品,而这些食品的原料可能来自于世界各地。
除此之外,全新的食品标签规定还鼓励食品厂商们尽量明确标注原材料的产地,毕竟咱们消费者希望知道自己所食用的产品是由什么样的原料加工而成的,因为受污染地区和干净地区产出的原材料还是有天壤之别的。
在此之前,不少消费者曾经被不明确的食品标签所误导,把原料产地为别国的食品当成“澳洲制造”。那么这一次,童鞋们就不会遇到这样的问题啦,在超市购物时也会更加地放心和安心!!!
